The first mod, a painted grille, from body colour to flat black.

It runs too.

I got my Opel GT for free, needs some brake work, and a little bodywork, but it's a pretty cool car.

You can get plenty of performance from the stock 1.9,(I like the video!) although most GT'ers dump the Solex carb and go for a Weber. Take a look at my Opel.

That's a very nice GT, it looks to be in fairly good shape too.

Cool, I've always loved the Accord Super Touring Car. I almost bought an Accord after my Plymouth Breeze got wrecked. It ain't cheap to make a realistic touring replica. The rims alone came to about 2 grand and so did the areo parts. The front splitter and the rear wing are the actual parts made for the old super touring stratus that raced way back in the day. I found the parts from a guy in France. It cost me an arm and a leg but it was well worth it. Hey, that's a cool Opel btw. Thanx for the comments man, peace out...
