MkIV was a restyled beetle body on a Sirroco floorpan - a modern car. I was talking about the 50's and 60's beetles. That's what a BEV could be at this point if dumbed down https://www.amazon.com/Keep-Volkswagen-Alive-Step-Step/dp/09...

There has to be something going on with Amazon's pricing model when the paperback of the book you linked is $500.

I'm thinking back really hard, but I don't know if I've ever looked around a 50's/60's Beetle more than a quick glance. If they built a new electric car as cheap and easy as those supposedly were to work on, I'd be very interested.

that is weird I agree...you can usually find it in thrift stores for a few dollars
