Ben's '58 Opel Rekord (Restoration)

[SaveOldCars]

Hey guys, I thought maybe you'd like to take a look at my first car. She's a '58 Opel we found in a parking lot. Opel is part of GM so they sorta look like Chevrolets/Buicks.
Many people have called me crazy for restoring this "wreck" but I don't care. She'll be on the road again someday.

It would too much time to repost all of my progress pics here, so I'll just post a link to the original restoration thread on the ChrisitineCarClub forums.

A work of love: No classic should go into oblivion...
Congratulations and enjoy the hours on it
