Hi. New Opel owner in Eskilstuna, Sweden

UFFEG · 07-10-2009

Hi..

2 weeks ago I bought myself an Opel Kadett A from 1965.
Have some other cars but there were something missing, an Opel.
Found it really cheap, and it has been owned by one lady, she drove it until age 99 !! Then sold it to an older pair. It has runned 80000 kilometers, almost nothing. Inside is like new...

I will fix the rust, and then just lower it a bit... and then put on a new paint, and new rubber around all windows and doors.... The brakes are MEGA bad, so I'll start by replacing hoses, and brake fluid... to begin with...

Live in Eskilstuna , South of Stockholm.
Also own a Chevy 4dr 1950, a Galaxie from 59, and a Mustang from 2005.
/Ulf

Welcome Ulf.
I work for Volvo Construction Equipment and I am spending a lot of time in Eskilstuna. I will be there as of August 9 again. Send me you phone number by private email. Will be happy to help you with your Kadett.
Hope that you noticed, there is a shop not far from the Bolinder hotel with some 4-5 Opel Records always there. I never approached them but they likely have good knowledge on Opels.
P.J.
