Nice project, I hope you're going to ditch the bonnet scoop.

Hi Monty and welcome. Where are you in the UK, I'm in Southampton?

Hi Grant, good to see you here. Good luck with the build, your Dad will be proud of you.

Very nice work, looks great. What does it drive like?

All the best for your surgery Christophe, I hope all goes well and many thanks for all the great show pics.

Nice to see you are still making progress. Paint looks good.

That's a great build. Love all the imaginative things that go into building a bike like this.

Welcome freewill,
Oom Johann66 is the man here for all things Opel, i'm sure he will be along to assist you shortly.

I think it's called a top loader as the access cover is on top where you 'load' the gears into.
As you say the four speed has the linkages on the left hand side.

Hi Samad, if it is a genuine V6 Perana it is a rare early Basil Green Capri. Basil Green put V6's in Capri's before Ford brought out their own version. The first 3 digits of the SIDO is the dealer code and could help verify the car as a Basil Green car.
