I see Doug all the time.  He doesn't have a computer at home and isn't 
able to grab the list at work, so he's been off the list for quite some 
time now.  No kids yet.  The burnt Mk1 is long gone, he now has another 
one that he bought in incredibly straight condition, then had a paint 
job laid on it that makes my $3k paint look like an Earl Scheib job..
..and that's just his dedicated auto-x car!  Still has his super-clean 
16v.  I *think* he's down to just the race car and the 16v - no more 4-5 
'rocs lying around.

Doug will be at the ND show in May I'm quite sure.  Some of you guys 
from the east coast and other points out of town should consider coming 
out, as Daun, Jim & Ben did about 4 years ago, and Dirk & co. did all 
the way from Germany the following year.  Last year's show was one of 
the best yet.  This year they're adding BMW's (eek) but it's always a 
fun gig.

Here's the new race car just before it was road-worthy.. you'll get an 
idea about how awesome the paint is from this shot..
