It's not Voldemort's body per se, it's the 7th piece of his soul.  
When his body was destroyed by the failed AK on Baby Harry at 
Godrick's Hollow, the 7th piece of his soul lived on, possessed 
small animals, Quirrell etc.  When he acquired a new body through 
the graveyard sequence in GoF, that 7th piece of his soul then 
resided within the new body.  I don't think this is actually a 
Horcrux, it's just the final piece of the soul that is actively 
Voldemort.  Therefore  I think there are actually only 6 actual 
Horcruxes (Horcruxi?).

Rather than thinking 'what could these Horcruxes be?'  I have been 
trying to think 'where would these Horcruxes be hidden?'

Part one (the locket) was located in the place where he tortured 
fellow orphans - a place of great significane to Tom Riddle.  
Part two (the diary) was left in the care of Lucius Malfoy 
(significant to Lord Voldemort)
Part three (possibly the cup) may have been left in the care of 
Bellatix Lestrange "he trusts me with his most precious..." 
(significant to Lord Voldemort)
Part four could be inside Nagini (significant to Lord Voldemort)
Parts 5 and 6 may be in other places of significance to Tom Riddle - 
The Riddle Mansion, his mother's family home, Hogwarts.

Just for the record I don't think that the locket at 12GP is THE 
locket because R.A.B.'s letter says s/he will destroy it 
immediately.  If R.A.B. was Regulus and he had had time to get it 
back to the family home, I think he would have had time to either 
destroy it or to alert Sirius or Dumbledore to its significance.

J.M.O.
