Hey everyone, im a newbie here, and a huge car nut, so I have some questions.

My dad picked up an Opel wagon recently as a new project (currently finishing up a 1978 Triumph Spitfire 1500) and just trying to figure out exactly what it is.

It is a 1971 2 door wagon. Automatic (even has a trunk badge for it), safari style rack, and the 1.9 motor. Is it a Kadett A? B? Ascona? Opel 1900?

It looks IDENTICAL to this one. http://3media.initialized.org/photos...l%20Kadett.jpg
The link says its a Kadett, but ive heard it called all 3 names...just confused I guess.

Any input or advice is appreciated.
Thanks!
