Starting life with a 1200cc engine, Andy Earnshaw's Opel Kadett Coupé now has an extra 3400 in the shape of a 4.6-litre Rover V8. Built as a drag car, Andy's determined to use it on the road. Will Holman's equally determined to keep his breakfast down.

Love a V8 ..what a lovely Kadette.
I had a 1975 manual 4 for sedan 1.6 model. Loved it. Was a great little car. Sadly written off when I got t-boned.
In the 70's, Holden's race team, called the Holden Dealer Team, HDT, released a special model with a 1.8ltr ohc motor in it with some mods. And it went like stink.
Enjoy the show. Looking forward to the next upload.
Love the untouched body.
I owned two of them back then.
Smart engine choice: Alu V8
