Using my last possibilities for solving Rookie puzzles 

Opel Commodore Jumbo, built in 1974 by Steinmetz-Tuning for the Interserie cup. It featured the V8 engine of the Opel Diplomat, boosted to around 500 hp.

Is that this car?

Hey - Wendax started out like a rocket at autopuzzles - 
let´s see if he can go on like that in future, too.

Is that this car?

I don't think so - different markings, and the air inlet on the C-pillar is different.

Well, I think, it's the same, since Jumbo was an one-off. It was modified several times for different occasions. Metalshape's second photo shows it at the Interserie Goodyear Pokal, 300 km Nürburgring 1974, driven by Peter Hoffmann. The original AutoPuzzle photo was taken at Hockenheimring.
