Im actually old enough to remember stocker Hudsons running and theres still some stout running ones at Bonneville, even repowered Opals too, the ones that look like mini Corvettes

the opel 4 speeds were the same as 71-72 vegas.
garbage trans....
had 3 opel GT's sitting here a year or two ago (long story)



glad they're gone
