One of my favorite cars. I'd take it over a VW Rabbit pickup because it has 2-door doors instead of shorter 4-door doors like the Rabbit. I think it's also the same engine except with increased bore spacing. Is it 2.2 liters?
How about a Rampage SRT-4? You could also make a collection of aerocaps and campers for it.
ThermionicScott — That's a nice selection. The last sunroof Beetle I had was a '67. Sold because the only place I had to keep it was in a ditch in front of the house.
I had as many as seven, but I'm down to two; a '71 Superbeetle (two years of production) and a pile of parts — a '58 Canadian Beetle body (semaphore pockets) on a '71 floorpan. Currently unregistered; but the State of Oregon has gold on blue Pacific Wonderland plates for a one time $100 surcharge. I'd like to do that.
The Thing has a lot of possibility. Do you follow EVTV? They have two with electric conversions, with dissimilar motors and chargers (that they sell).
