Have one of the few in the States.
Any ideas as to who could help with repairs and service in Texas?
I gotta funny feeling I'm going to be on my own.
Thanks for any help.

i think some Pontiac's are the equivlents over there, i saw some vauxhall looking motors when i was in california. The pontiac GTO is basically a vauxhall/holden monaro, and there are a few others, to my best bet, is to go to them.. Anyways, welcome to the forum  |

Sorry for disappearing. I'll post a picture later today or tomorrow.
I have the real thing...from England.
It drives, but I need to tinker and tune in the next couple of weeks, and then turn it loose on America.
Nobody here has a clue about what it can do, or what it is.

Do you know it's history? How did it end up in the U.S?
