I found an old picture of a 73 super beetle I owned when I was about 23 or so. The picture wasn't in good shape, but I scaned it in photoshop, played with it some. I drove this thing as you see it from southeast Missouri to Phoenix, Az. and back one summer. Things were a lot blurrier then. I would not even think of it now.

Heh! This has a definite apocalyptic feel to it - nuclear winter and only the bug survived but even so it's fading, too.

Way cool. One of my friends gave a 74 Bug to me a couple of months ago. I can't wait to semi- restore it this summer when things are slow.

It's like this image is someone's memory and it is slowly being lost, due to forgetfulness. I love your editing.

Very cool! It looks like it's in motion and about to crash into that house! And it appears it's lost a back tire on the way and that it's all set on a beach! Awesome!

Oh wow! This is cool Rod. It looks like someone can't wait to get home. It sounds like you had a nice beetle adventure all those years ago. I read a story a little while ago about a couple who shipped an elderly beetle from NZ to England and then drove home via Europe and Asia. Those cars just keep on going.
