My Pride and Joy, hanging with the Roach.
Road Trip! Built in picnic seats for the kids.
and perfectly sized child seats in the back.
The Roach on a wet track, it handles well in the rain, just have to focus on smooth transitions. It was a garage queen till I bought it in 2002 with 85k miles. I think it likes it better this way.



Some glamor shots from the PO, with polished Fuchs.
