Looking good! Is that the standard location for a radio aerial on Finish Kadetts?

Re: Kadett gsi 8v

This kadett was standard 1.3l. At '97 20seh was changed from gsi. Also entire interior and bodykit was fitted. Colour will change something else. Floors was rusty so i had to get new ones.



Sorry bad english....

Yes they do. Salt is the main reason of rusting i think.
