Meet the Super Bugger, the Unfortunately-Named Volkswagen Beetle That's Also an RV - autoevolution
The Super Bugger has been around since the early 1970s, and it’s perhaps one of the most quirky conversions done to classic Volkswagens. The original Super Bugger hails from Costa Mesa, California, where a company offered turnkey conversions or kits for DIY builds. That said, once word of it got out, conversions flourished all the way through the ‘80s, and have been known under a variety of names, including Bugaroo, Lil’ Bugger and MiniHome.
The original Super Bugger retailed for $6,000 and it is believed only some 1,000 units were produced. Of those, some still survive to this day, including the two units shown in the photo gallery above – and the three in the videos at the bottom of the page. These three are among a handful of Super Buggers left in such mint condition and that are still on the road today.
One is the Super Bugger shown on the cover of the 1977 Mechanix Illustrated (sold through Mecum in 2021 for a hair under $20,000), and two are located in Canada.
extremely sick but also that would have to be even worse than a microbus on the freeway. My friend had a beetle in highschool and I recall breaking 70MPH in it with a tailwind, downhill, and it was the fastest he'd ever gotten it.
