Sorry no more pics,took these just before he went out for another spin around town.
I'm not so good on weght in LBS but in kilograms this one weighs in on around 750-800 kg with a full cage and all steel body.
I think that is aprox 1600-1800 lbs or something like that.
And yes they look a bit like the Opala ,only smaller (If You compare it with a Chevy Vega You'll find that the Vega is a big car beside the Kadett...)
Enclosing a pic of the Opalas forefather they where made by the German GM-company Opel just as that little yellow Kadett and in the same time-span,they first came in 1967 and was built in many shapes ,it was the Rekord 1.9 liter 4 cyl 88 hp and the Commodore that had a 2.5 liter inline 6 at 115 hp.But they also came in different carb.-setups:Rekord Sprint had dual 2 port Webers and a bit more power and there was also a dual-carb Commodore
The Commodore came in 2 versions :4D sedan and 2D coupe,Rekord came as a 2D and 4D sedan 2D coupe and 2 or 4D Stationwagon.
Opel built them between 1967 to 1971 with that body-style,then they lived on in to the early 80's but no hardtop coupe only 4D.
The car on the pic is a 68 thats almost stock beside the wheels.
