Hi Guys
Now i can post some pic i throught i'd better say hi and give you some back ground as there may be some members thinking whos this C*&k.
Well my name is Andy and i do pop up on other forums namely the Autobahn Stormers, Opel Manta Owners, Omega Owners and a few others so you may have seen me about. I was also involved in the PNG the first time round as i used to work with Mark Watts who i think had one of the first Nova Turbos.
I've been with and on vauxhall's for over twenty five years as i'm now the Ass' Parts Manager athe Vauxhall Dealership in Bury St Edmunds and i also have my owner part time business doing Service, Repairs, Restorations & Parts for Classic Vauxhall Opel Cars..
The fleet at the moment is
Omega Saloon 2.5 V6 Auto (The other half drives it)
Nova 5 door Hatch 1.2 merit ( my daily drive)
Mk3 Cavailer Hatch 2.0 8v Auto (garaged for the 2 years may be going banga racing)
Manta GTE Coupe 2.5 V6 ( Still being built after to many years)
Opel GT 1969 Full restoration
Also look after two other Manta Coupes, one of which i re-built from a bare shell and i also have a S1 Senator which is in for part restoration.
Haven't may pics of the cars
Couple of the Nova from last week

Not sure if you make out the mileage but its now just turned 57k and thats orginal and before anyones asks, no i'm not doing anything to it.
I've a couple of jobs to do on it. The first will be to change the carb as i've a lite load mis fire at about 55-60 mph which i think is the enrichment diaphram playing up. As luck would have it a friend of mine brought a load on NOS from a dealer and there happened to be a new carb amongest the parts.
Lower front panel is also going to need another going over but i might end up putting in a replacement..
Thats about it but i'll see if i can get some pics of the other cars
Cheers
Andy
