Very cool! Looks like you're already having lots of fun!
Thanks..... I am having FUN. Even crawling on the ground scraping up my elbows & knees on the driveway, banged up hands, etc, etc has been worth it! I am really looking forward to get into the "BIG Stuff" once the weather turns cold again. As always, I will miss all the cruises, car shows & drags but this Winter will be filled with doing the many things already on my "to do list"!!!!Very cool! Looks like you're already having lots of fun!
For some reason it was MORE exciting to get the OPEL out for the first time than all of the other cars/hot rods/motorcycles we have owned.Hey John. Looks like you smiled all the way the the cruise???? Great tp see you getting it out and around.There is just nothing like getting a car that you've been working on out in the public. It's great to see you're having fun with it. Mark L

Yes.... The "Stude Gasser" is very nice. Old school as old school can be. It is the first 2dr sedan Studebaker I have seen turned into a hot rod.Well did cruise night happen, or get rained out last night? The Studey is cool! The old 2dr sedans make a great looking gasser.
Will do Mark.Hey John. Can you get us some more pics of your Opel as far as the interior, firewall, engine and engine compartment? Would love to see how everything is packaged. Mark l
Back when they were running in the 60's the Swindler I and II cars ran different classes. I believe one was A/GS and the other was B/GS. Both supercharged identical Willys, but I believe some engine difference to put one in B/GS. I've read the difference in Gasser Wars, but I'll have to look them up again and see for sure.Nice to see the car on the road already... even without lights!!

I saw the Swindler II on My Classic Car this week. What's the diff between them? It looked exactly the same.
