Re: Racecars shipped to Sweden back in the day.

The reason why there is a Chevy-based engine in the chassis and why the body was sold, was that Opel (GM) sponsored the car when it came to Sweden. So they put an Opel Manta body on it and a Rodeck engine in it.

I have sent Bruce the whole article published in Power Magazine, so there will be more photos later on.
