Figure 7 is actually the profile that I want to do.
Fig. 7 looks sound to me , opinions needed !

The 7th figure from the top is the Koenig-Kamm 'Kamm back' contour and a good choice.
Since the roof would begin at the windshield header it would be significantly lower than the Beetle's original roof peak,and since it is significantly forward of the original max camber position,you're killing two birds with one stone.
It would generate some interesting numbers at the gas pump.
