hey there. this is my first post on the forums

just a little info about me: i currently live in mississauga ontario, and recently i just discovered the Opel GT. it is such an awesome and unique car and i definatly wanna get one

currently i am a mechanical engineering student and own a 1999 toyota corolla. i am trying to sell the corolla for as much as i can so i have some money to buy an opel. i want an opel that runs so i can atleast use it while im restoring it. i have never restored a car before but would love to start. i found this for sale:
1971 Opel GT - Kingston Collector Cars For Sale - Kijiji Kingston
i think it should be fairly good to do some work on as it did run. i asked the seller to see if it runs currently. it is fairly rusty so im also looking up good ways to fix it. if im way over my head please let me know, i dont mind harsh but true criticism.
ps: i am 19 years old, if that makes any difference.
