Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason.

What I did this Summer

Here's a couple of photo's of me touring the Orbiter Processing Facility (O.P.F.) at Kennedy Space Center this past May (I was there for the launch of Space Shuttle Discovery). Above me in the photo you can see the underbelly of Space Shuttle Atlantis. In my hand is one of the black thermal tiles that protect the orbiter during re-entry. Don't worry, I stuck it back before I left (with a little bubble gum!). I was really inspired by my visit. I've since renamed my garage the "Opel Processing Facility (O.P.F.)!"

Who's who...

Well here I am. This picture was taken a little over a year ago, pre-restoration... (disregard the goofy look on my face )

Im now 19 years old and in the middle of restoring my GT. Im in college, so the resto is on hold until i get back to MI for the summer.

My crew

Here is my Wife Kathy, and my Son Dale, and me. I haven't had much time to work on my GT much since my son came along in Feb of 05, And I became a stay at home Dad, the last big Opel event I went to was Carlisle in 04, I hope to make it to more when my son gets older.

Me and the Girls

Here's a photo of Myrna, Kelci (then 15), Rachel (then 7) and myself at the windup dinner at the 2003 OMC Picnic. Our oldest daughter Ashley was working that summer so she had to stay home in Calgary. Myrna and I haven't changed much, but the girls certainly have.
For a more current view, I am on facebook at

Heck, I even have a facebook photo album of my GT restoration at:
Keith Wilford's Photos - Keith's 1971 Opel GT Restoration (Vol. 1 of ???) | Facebook
