in the late 70's I bought a fixer upper opel GT which I had intensions of installing my Mustang drive train in and running Comp. Maybe I shouldda? but then there would have never been a USCN. But it was too late, by then the class hook was set way too deep in me and I was already on to SS. I just used it as a daily driver and work car eventually selling it for a tidy profit I bought it as a trade in from the dealership I worked at then with a slipping clutch.
