A few pictures of our restauration. It´s a 1974 Opel Rekord D, 2-door limousine with a 2 liter motor.
It was completely disassembled, every single part was cleaned, checked and either used to rebuild the car or was replaced.
The paint is that orange pearl you find on a Ford Focus ST, just with more pearl in it :-)
Weber type 40 carbs were put in, a sport suspension made from parts by Spax an Koni and 14 inch Powertech chrome wheels.
All in all about 2 years (almost always nice) work, uncounted amounts of softdrinks and cigarettes, lots of money...and even more work ;-)
But it was worth all of it.
Later conversion to a 2.4l motor with Weber type 45 carbs, 5-speed manual transmission, diy stainless steel exhaust, 15 inhc wheels an bigger brakes.
