You are right, it is to far back, but a full stud to the front is even worse:
I tried that yesterday in the evening.... :-(
Maybe a solution with a half stud might work perfectly? Not easy to build, but
surly worth to give it a trial.
But the classic beetle has a stunningly long 'nose'. The new one has a
windscreen that leads to a point far above the center of the front wheel,
while the old one had a nearly 90° windscreen and that line prolonged does
not even cross the front wheel.
