Mid '85,one of the last of them,or did the newer Kadett come out in '84? Maybe it hung around the dealership for a bit.

Saw these vans near Lough Key Forest Park last weekend.

Whoah!!! Sorry for dragging this back up, great thread btw.

Side windows!!!!

Any ideas where this might be?

And a pop top too, it may well be converted to a camper already. Though the likelihood of the interior being usable is slim.

That Acclaim got fairly badly rear ended it seems. Hope no one was in it when that happened.

kasper

i would guess it probably done a summersalt pity they didnt make the whole car out of the same type of metal as the tail pipe

oflynno

where is that golf jeep contraption in between the vw vans???

Slidey

Is that a toyota wheel on it too?

Love to but I haven't got the room for another, I have a Holdsworth Pop top with a 2.3 petrol engine. I saw a transit fit before it took way too much out of the cross member for my liking.

Only looking for slant 4 parts, if you're breaking it I might be interested if there was anything worth salvaging. I'd love a pair of sliding windows for the side current ones don't open.
