It kinda makes sense if you think about it. 95% of the topics for your model years will have nothing to do with the sliding roof, so a separate forum would have little traffic. A sticky in the regular forum(s) on sliding roofs would serve the purpose. Like these:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=243264
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=221576
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8830004
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=372407
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=275275
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=612842

Photos, on the other hand are more likely to show the roof differences. You can get to threads mentioning any photo with the link under each photo: "Search Forums for photo"

Yes, what KTPhil stated.

There are a bunch of specific things that people have asked if they should be a separate Classifieds/Forum section in the past but it doesn't make sense as the ads/posts would be very limited or create weird duplications.
You'd have to search multiple sections to find answers for things that are really all 1958-67 Beetles, for example.
