The king is a 21 window splitty, and i'd say a Ghia makes a nice queen,
though maybe a Type 4 wagen (the queen uses it to buy groceries and take
kids to soccer or something?), maybe in that regard it should be a eurovan?
The queen is tricky, the Ghia has nice curves to it.....
My votes for a 21 window king.
