I intend on using the above mentioned method to build a rabbit based sports car (mid engined) just trying to come up with a good front suspension setup (all on paper right now.)

up till this point I've used this method on boats and surfboards but this will be my first car.

That is something I can just dream about; making a mid-engined roadster in spirit of a Porsche Spyder. But that is just impossible here in Finland, they ruin here all the fun of modifying cars by making laws that stop you right from the tought of it.

Luckily in canada we do have some standards but do it yourself projects are fairly easily registered.

Another idea for a convertable hotrod using almost all of a vw body would be this: go to page 92 of the june 2002 issue of VWTrends. That car with a T-top or convertable would be hot!

Couldnt you just like register it in another eu country that has better regulations and tell the authorities its just a temporary import??
The uk sva licensing is pretty good towards the kit builder...
