Default Hi , Im new

Hi Im new to this forum and have joined to ask advice from you all about buying and customising a beetle for my son.
I have always wanted to do this for myself , but alas, I will have to give it up on completion!
I dont really have any clue as to how much this will cost or how to go about it and find the things that I will need to do this.
I have a year and a half to do this, but I work a lot, so it will be hard to keep it up sometimes.
Some questions I wanted to ask are...
1. Is it best to buy a shell to work on for a good price or buy an unfinished project which has had some attention?
2.Are there any magazines I should subscribe to to help me with this massive task?
3.Any good sights for custom parts and accessories?

In a nutshell, I want to transform an old beetle into a sort of 'pimp my ride' type of thing.

Am I mad???

I know there are many many things to learn about, so go easy on me!!!

looking forward(I think) to your help.
