1. Samba
2. Split Beetle
3. Semaphore Bus
4. Oval Beetle
5. German Split Bus
6. Low Ghia
7. Pre 60's Beetle

Think the list should be on what available on the scene. Dont think we have any Barndoor Buses or split bugs left cause we never see any !
So think the list should be more like this
1) Oval (With ragtop top - ultimate...

)
2) Split Camper (non-barn door)
3) Split
4) Early Bug (Sunroof)
5) Early Bug (Non- sunroof)
6) Fleetline
6) Lowlight Bay
7) Ghia (Lowlight)

Ghia Razor
9) Late bug - Post 67' (pre 70')
10) Retro Buggies
.....
15542) Strange home brewed, cut up acvw based, beasts.
And Yes, there is supposed to be two number 6's
