me? I have a 1.8 8v Opel Kadett GTE. I'll start renovation on her once we get this ****ing orrible range rover vogue out of the workshop, it's such a pain in the ass!

But this Kadett will be a labour of love thats for sure!

The grill was from an LX with the horizontal slats removed and smoothed. I did all the work myself apart from the respray in original Carmine Red. I sold the car back in 2001 when I bought my Veccy ST200, see spec here http://www.astra-mk2.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1178
