nice pics like the kadett
My old school was demolished. :(
nice pics like the kadett
that thing was so rotten when he bought it, when you grabbed the C pillar and shookthe car, the front end didnt even move.
it only needs paint now, but he just bought a house, so that his 1st priority at the moment.
Our old school Opels:
