That's probably the only one you'll need if your recreating one, looks like just an early SR with Opel livery MASSIVE

I've had a quick look but it seem to only find "C's" :( ... await Duicks input lol

Most if not all of those search results are of the sprint C and DR and not the R though.

Doesn't suit the red to me :(

They came in white, red, black and silver.

Think the white one looks the best but then i might be biased lol

It could be my fault as i resized the red pic and quite badly and its faded colour dont help.

Do you want to go Sprint-C? I might sell my kit for the right money.

Steve, in your massive archive, do you have a pic of a red Sprint with the Irmscher bumpers & side skirts?

This is very much a budget build, just wanting to be out and about in a Nova again and the Sprint R is something diffrent, drove it earlier my smile said it all.

Once the Sports done though i might be intrested in the Sprint C kit.
