Ok been meaning to do this for a while as i've been adding bits into the "What have you done to your car" post so lets start
Car in question is a LHD, series one Senator A in green and by green i mean green. Green paint, Green Carpets, Green Seats, Green Dash etc etc. The car came over from Germany via a contact in Holland which we then collected from Harwich, oh what fun to drive a car that size onto a trailer thats still hitched to the van and has a slipping gear box, had to rev the nuts of it go to it to more then jam the brakes on to stop it from hitting the back of the van.
Although the box was slipping the car did run well as we used it the year before in a fact finding trip to Opel Classic Parts in Germany, over taking plod on the autobahn was an eye opener.
So the Car
Oh and its sister arrived the following year
but more on that later.
First job was to start stripping the engine bay out as this was where most of the metal work was going to be done
So of the problems
Inner wing
Head Lamp Panel
Inner wing / Chassis leg Lip
Right side A Pillar Flitch Panel
So first jod to get stuck into was the replacement of the inner wing although it took a few months to find an inner wing but after having a Rekord one arrive which is a four pot we finally got the correct one
Inner wing fitted with the battery try
Next job is to tackle those headlamp panels
Cheers
Andy
