Isuzu (not Opel) in FL
I've been visiting the forum for awhile; Figured it was time to say HEYSome parts interchange & the Kadett C is a close cousin so I hope y'all won't diss me too bad. Been working on & around cars for a couple of decades. Starting in NH at dealerships then Savannah both at dealerships & aftermarket suppliers. I finally settled down, went back to school & got a BS in Health Sci. Moved to Orlando, taught HS Science for a bit but these kids today can be wild ![]() We had a student-on-student fatal stabbing my first month. ![]() Change of plans - soon will finish either an MPH or MS in epidemiology. I've had to scrounge for info on my little Isuzu; Found alot on AU sites for their version - Holden Gemini. Considering the scarcity of available tech lit & parts on these earliest US Zoos I have been somewhat succesful at keeping her on the road. I loved reading Heimues story on bringing his C back from Texas. I'd seen that on Cardomain way back & am still amazed the PO sold it. Awesome score Sir. Dieter is another member I've enjoyed reading about. Here's a link & a couple of pix for him - a New Zealand Gemini for sale. It's been reregisterd as a GT/E replica. Race ready & Opel powered! Opel Kadett / Isuzu Gemini Race Car for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Thanks again to Gary & all y'all for having me

Welcome. Sure many of us consider the Isuzu built versions to be Opel enough. I used to road race in SCCA showroom stock with both an Opel Ascona in SSB and Buick/Opel (Isuzu) in SSC and they had many very similar components. As you know, your I-mark is very much the Buick/Opel at the end of it's life cycle after Izuzu took over selling it here.
