    nasty making bellhousings out of iron, some cheapskate manufacturers involved there, which makes you think of Ford

    or maybe Vauxhalls/opel of the same era

    Don't lump 1960s Opels in with Vauxhalls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:o

    In the 60s and 70s you could get a nice light Kadett 2 Door with a nice big 1.9 litre motor!

    BUT NOT IN RHD BECAUSE OF NASTY VAUXHALLs![:x]
