Hello,

My name is Mauro, I am from Portugal and I am the proud owner of a 68' Vauxhall Viva HB SL90.
It's a project car, and I enjoying the experience of working in a nice car like this, and is also a really good driving experience, I am always happy when I ride this car.
The only problem I have is finding parts for the car, in Portugal this cars are getting really rare and I always have to improve our buy custom parts for it.
Now I have the differential disassembled, but I can't find the parts to fix it, so it will be sitting for some time.

Have a great time riding the Vivas. 8)

Hi Mauro, Good to hear from a Portuguese Viva owner. Portugal seems to have been a place where the Viva was well liked in it's hay day. I hope you find your parts soon and get back on the road.
