Hi guys and girls, Picked this up a few weeks ago, I belive the previous owner also had a thread on here for the same car. It a 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier Sporthatch 1600 GL! Nicked these photos of the owners advert! (Hope you don't mind will!) A few little issues to sort out but over all she is in stunning condition. Need to sort out the prop shaft U/Js which are showing signs of wear but seem unavailible as a kit and only as a whole propshaft?! There also seems to be an issue with fueling so looking for a twin choke webber to replace the current Nikki carb for which there seems little spares or information avalible! Also looking for a drop and some wheels! Feel free to photochop! Stu.
