Its a max power derived car, personally I hate it. But fair play for all the work that has gone into it

Love it or hate it, AFAIK Daz did all the bodywork himself?? If thats the case, he gets respect from me regardless.

^ what he said - It looked stunning in the flesh if that was the one I saw at Billing a couple of years ago and I reckon you get a Polo (Car not mint) in each of the rear tailpipes and still get out of the doors |

I think the work is awesome, and to totally re-do it with the Vectra lights and bonnet mods is credit to Daz. The front looks completely different, yet still a Carlton. Re-fookin-spect!
I understand that he sold it, new owner smashed it and asked Daz to rebuild it, an request that was turned down.

I love those Vectra headlights!!
Any tips on how he did 'em? I appreciate there's probably a fair bit of filler involved, but do they more or less just bolt on?

I remember this from the issue in Total Vauxhall Mag . It looked bloody good then and now looks even better now .
Its just a pity it got smashed up in the first place , looks like alot of painfull work has gone into it to bring her back to life again.
Would of like to see what she loked like after the big smah , before she was brought back to life again.
Well done mukka
