Well heres a couple of pictures of the new project car. It will have the same engine, ignition and carburator setup from my 13 second First Gen. But the car weighs 400 Lbs less in full trim than my first gen did stripped down bare. It will definitely be fun to drive.

I wonder how far back the GM/Opel/Holden ties go.

Well I could bring it back but that depends on weather or not I return to the U.S. The engine is not in it yet. I am still sourcing a couple of parts. But as far as I can see everything will fit no problem. This includes a nice big Ford 9inch rear.
