You really should work on your spelling and remove the text speak language from your advert.

Plz

Yeah, a few capitals and some fullstops and everything spelled out correctly will make it sound like it's from someone serious - not a 15 year old hoodie. I'd be a bit hesitant buying anything written like that!

The way that advert is written I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. Please correct it if you want serious bidders. I can almost guarantee it will go for a lot more money if you do.

You are selling something to a customer who will likely be from an older generation. They will not appreciate double punctuation "!!", shortened words like "plz" and smiley faces. It will give them the impression that you are just a kid selling something you have no knowledge of. Im not trying to be rude, im trying to help you make more money.

One of the funniest things i've seen in ages!!! If you we going to do a Frazer Nash replica (as opposed to a Frazer Nash TT replica, an entirely different thing and a very exciting find indeed) I couldnt imagine starting with a beetle. And keeping the engine where it is.

Cost wise, probably not more then 1500 as someone has said. Even when compleately finished, its sill an oddity
