Questions on vw Beetle 1500s, Mcpherson Struts, Front Beam chassis etc.
Do all VW Beetle 1500's have a McPherson strut front end chassis? How can I identify it from normal shocks?

And

How do I identify whether a chassis has a beam front end?
Where the vw Beetle 1500 models built with collapsible steering wheel columns?
When choosing a doner vw Beetle 1500 for a beach buggy, what factors should I look out for (Points to consider before buying).
Please explain the definitions of professional terms cause I'm new to this sector. Thanks.

Thanks, Chris
