i always restore the old wiring, my experiences with new have not been good.

would be good if there was a loom but it has been removed

There are plenty of wrecks about, you just need to ask around, and go looking.....just me maybe, but I'd look for og.

Steve,

I rewired a beetle after an engine fire and used a seconhand kombi harness
Plenty of length and extra wires to cater for any accessories ie engine temp, oil pressure gauges, etc.
