Super Bug from 'Straya' - Owner: Evan Ademovic


Super BugG'day from Oz! This is my '72 1302 Super Beetle named "Bumblebee". When I'm not tinkering with him, Bumbles is puttering around NSW, driving around western Sydney and going for cruises to the beach with long boards strapped to his roof.

Super Beetle EngineBumblebee has a special little badge on his dashboard, showing that he's a Limited Edition "15 Millionth Collectors Bug". Which would be the only type of Special Edition Bug to be sold in Australia. The Canary Yellow paint is evidence of an older restoration, and yes he's got some rust here and there, but he's still a solid little beast.

Special Edition Super BeetleLast year he took home a 1st place trophy for unmodified Volkswagen Beetles at the Aussie Volkswagen Nationals. Bumbles sees lots of smiles and waves, a few punches and cheers as the bright yellow 51 year old hunk of steel still rolls down the streets of 'Straya'. Being an Australian Beetle, it was the first year to have the high back seats and the last year with an unpadded dash. He's a fun little cruiser!
