[THE LEGEND]

My dad had an 1968 Opel Station Wagon he raced it from new until about 76 or 77. He raced it for awhile with the Lil School Bus on the side because my mom was a school teacher and drove it to work. He then painted it red and called it Art's Little Red Wagon. He ran z/s with it until around 76 when the HP was refactored to T/S could'nt run index so he went bracket racing then. In those days local tracks ran stock 3 times a week. Daddy won lots of races in those days. He also won a IHRA national with the car in the ealry 70's and r/u a NHRA race in Warner Robbins Ga with the car.
The Transmissions were junk we carried a spare eveywhere we went and could change them in between rds. He had wholes cut in the floor boor to reach the bolts and the Opel GT trannys were better. That little opel is what gave me the desire to race Stock eliminator.
