Raffi's Happy Cars
Raffi Minasian is a car guy of the first order - an automotive designer who got his first car when he was just 11 years old. And WHAT a car: a 1953 Giaur sports car powered by a Crosley 4 cylinder. With a car like that in the stable, the fact that he still speaks fondly of the stock Crosley Super Sports he picked up a few years later tells you a lot about him.
Raffi has had a fascinating career in the auto industry and currently writes for several car magazines... he just published an article in Vintage Road and Racecar about what makes a car fun to drive, starting with his Crosley. A good read and some nice pics too!

Goodbye, Lil Garage
A strange day: the funky little shed that has been my workshop/garage/practice space for 12 and a half years, is gone.
