Default What are the current Rebody Rules???

Hi Crew,
Just starting a new Project and want to confirm the current rebody rules before I start.

1973 Beetle, already registered as 'Historic' all standard running gear, SORN.

Project will include removing the body and keeping ALL the VW:
Chassis - LWB
Axles
Suspension - Drop spindles & lowered
Steering - Same box etc, but will relocate to the centre.
Transaxle - Raised (lower the car)
Engine - Depending on strip down, may be a replacement, but same cc's.

New body will be handmade fibreglass - With subframe mounting it to the floor pan.
Photos with number plates - before, during & after.

My understanding is that following the 'body swap' notify DVLA to change body 'name' and off for an MOT!!

I know, not quite that simple, but generally, there is still NO requirement for the dreaded IVA/BIVA/SVA/RAC/AA/ABC/MBA Testing.

Thanks in advance.

Colin HD
