Welcome aboard!
I had a friend here that had an Opel GT. Neat little Car!

We said:
German Styling gets the girls.

Sounds  like some nice cars.
Check out this pictures I found of them. I was curious what they were.
Chevrolet V-8's in the Diplomat-B..
Admiral Photos were a little harder to find
Is your Record an Old one like this?


Here's a cool Kadett shot!

Those cars are COOL!  They look pretty light as well.  I'll bet they are strong performers with the 327 V-8 engine.  The 327 Chevrolet small block engine was one of the best engines ever produced, IMHO.  The Chrysler 340 engine is another........Cliff

When you are writing a Post, Look down below the textbox,  and open the link called "additional Options"
Then Choose Attach.
For more info read the post in the "Lobby" about Resizing and Posting pictures.
