nobody is on a distinguished road
Wow, the stiff wind mobile. In 1981 I bought one that had been canibalised for that purpose and in a 40 migh headwind it stalled and the owner junked it. all that was salvagable was the rear deck area, the battery acid accellerated the rust factor. In 30 odd years of opels and some 25 cars I've never even seen a picture or even seen a parts car that bad off. By 83 or 84 there was nothing left. both fenders were gone and so was the firewall and lower front frame
