Back to the story about the 'Carrera Roadster' with the baby seat in the back. I spoke to the owner because i was aware that a Carrera Roadster is a rare thing. He said 2 exist. 1 had been lost and his isn't the other Back in 1988 it's owner approach a UK porsche Legend the late Eric Studer and asked him if he should buy a Golf GTI or 356. Unfortunately I never met Eric, but I believe Roy did, and would atest that Eric didn't mince his word so told the chap to stop talking about a crappy VW and buy the best of the best 356. Which this 'Carrera Roadster' was built to be. Eric had a racing speedster but prefered pushrod engine so he gave the owner his 2l 4 cam and gearbox from his speedster. I think he advised the owner that the roadster was the best practical v performance mix. Many miles later, with an engine rebuild, the car is still going very well.
Yuk ran very nicely to Hedingham. She is looking a bit outlaw herself since I revmoved both bummers because I pulled the front bummer of reserving out of the garage.
