    This car can be had for $4500.00US as a roller. I want the engine ( carb to oil pan) and headers. Previous owner ran 10.4's at 130mph with it set up as is. Car is located in Vancouver, BC and has registration. I registered it and drove it once on the street last year.

    I think you're on to something.

    But that one above looks like it would work for you, and it's not very far away.

    Keep searching racing junk. The site is not very user friendly and takes some time to find what your looking for. I found my Regal roller there and paid 900.00 + a trip to KY to pick it up. Also been burned on parts with no recourse through RJ. Find that many sellers never respond to request for info.

    Hi Glen,

    Glad to hear your daughter is ok, sorry to hear that the Opel is not.

    Where were you guys racing? Is anything salvagable from the Opel?

    all four wheels need to be replaced all front suspension is toast both axle tubes are bent the motor transmission electronics cage and hopefully the tube chassi is still square I beam front end is toast don't know if its worth rebuilding or not still taking inventory and putting together a shoping list
