Hi,
I've just agreed to buy a '71 Viva HB automatic, and taken an option on a HB estate from the same vendor, so I thought it sensible to join up on here.
A self employed windscreen fitter for the last 35 years, and a keen stage rally man, I have plans to restore the car bodily to original, but to update the mechanics to present day standards whilst keeping it all Vauxhall. the jury is out at the moment wether I go 2300/2600 slant four and o/d/getrag box, or 16v XE and Carlton 5 speed, but I hope you get the gist of it.
