    I had a "Rally" for Solo and DD. great car. Never blew it up.
    Great handling with a big front bar. I think that the rear springs were already pretty stiff. Have fun with it!!. MM

    Thanks,
    The paint is 12 years old and only 75k on the car and still gets 40 mpg....no air not good in Florida...

    I did the ground effects and rear spoiler myself out of styrofoam and fiberglass and got a race spring set from Opel Gt source for the ride. a lot of fun and great therapy to build during my divorce 12 years ago.....

    Cool, thanks for the pictures. I've not registered for the opel board yet, I'm trying to limit how many boards I post on, I've already got a couple of BMW boards, and I have yet to move on the car. I figured I'd wait a week then talk it over with my lovely wife, then see if it'll follow me home. I figured that becoming a race car would add provenance, besides the interior is pretty sad shape.
