Joe's Aussie Oval


G'day guys
I've just moved house & I found lots of old Pictures of my family when they first arrived in Oz. I thought I should share some of the vw pics as they are pretty cool.

These are of my fathers oval, loaded to the tilt with guns & ammo, out the back of Bourke kangaroo shooting.
There's also one of my father fixing his oval on the streets of Erskinville after hitting a kangaroo.
Dad said that he had twin carbs, lightened flywheel & headwork in the little oval.
enjoy
Jak

71 Superbug, type 3 carbs, 74mm stroker crank, stock bore, reground cam, this had quite a name for itself around Orange as the little vw that ate v8's, wether it did or not is another thing.

This is the first & only beetle that my Father bought brand new, he said that he dropped a valve in the first 2 weeks & had it fixed under warranty. What he was doing to drop a valve in a new vw is anyones guess

I remember going up Mt Canobalas in Orange in the Snow in this car, all the other cars were bogged on the side of the road but we were the only ones that made it to the top!

I always say that to him when we are out driving somewhere, his reply is that I should put some fuzzy dice on the revision mirror & move back to Marickville
