The maximum body width moves inward 3in and forward 2ft on each side. That's what allows the 3ft boattail instead of 5 feet. IMHO, of course.

If we had unlimited resources we could build out the VLVW in all the permutations that you've shared and test them all for inclusion in a master data archive.
The Beetle remains such an endearing form for so many and I think other Bug owners would want to know what they were capable of when taken to the limit.
I thought that by now,your renderings would have lit a fire under others,and we'd see 'em fleshed out 'n goin' down the road.
