Please help me name my Opel

TDCRACING · 05-15-2012, 10:36 PM

A friend of mine had bought the opel and pulled the motor out and slowly stripped it, So it sat out back of his place as a body and rear,no windows in the rain for a year or two. I knew the history of the car as my brother worked with Jim Zane who raced it from 1980 to1996 when he crashed it .Jim also set I think 7 national records in those years. But other than that i dont know a whole lot. Sometimes Issac Zane is on here maybe he can chime in since he used to run the car also. Anyway i always had hotrods but ever since i was a kid wanted a race car so i made a deal with my friend and paid him a little at a time, put it back together and here i am. I still need alot of help as i suck as a driver(damn red lights) lol, but im learning and spending some quality time with my son doing it , so its worth it to me.
