Opel Rekord C Coupe 1971

@dido1903 Happy Birthday to Sofia, Bulgaria , Dido !

Progress in the restoration? Completion ?

With google translator "Напредък в възстановяването? Пусков?"

Is that correct in Bulgarian language ?

Danke! Really yesterday was my birthday My colleagues made me a surprise - that Rek C Coupe photo
Quite a good translation by google actually!
I had a lot of work these days and hadn't enough time for the Rekord unfortunately.
But the next to do:
- front bumper install;
- front grill;
- motorhaubenzug - I found it form Rekord B - I'm not sure if it's OK, but I'll try and will write here.
- rear small trims to install
By the way I found the trunk lock cylinder, but the problem is I still don't have any key for the door grips and for the trunk. So anyone got a key to sell?

Hi Dido,

when you remove the door handles there is a bar which actuate the door lock mechanism. On this bar there is a char-number combination with which you can order a new key at https://www.keyprof.com
On the trunk lock it should be the same...

I didn't know it!
Viele , Schrauber!!!

I had the same problem. Lost my key last year. So I'm happy I can help you.

not sure both locks are same with the door handles ?

maybe watch out for three locks with two keys and replace it with your unknown locks ?

cheers

may 2011 to July 2018...when you started to restore that wreck...not many people here
were confident you will finish that one day. So if you look back what was the biggest
challenge of the restauration ?

Again, respect and congratulation

cheers
