HOLY CRAP! I saw a rocc!



Thanks.
I run into a lot of nice young ladies who drove "one of them VW "Sh__ 
Rockets in college" but I have been worrying about the merits of continuing 
to hang out at local junkyards. Nice to know there are still candidates.
The first day trip for my 86 was from Stuttgart to Swizterland in Jan 86 
and I plan for it to outlive all others, whatever mods I can make.
