You hit the jack pot girl..I loved them cars..and your supply of parts is like the ultimate project without the headache of sourcing parts that I'm sure are in very limited quantity and quality....I envy your situation....make me proud and do it right

Opel GT, was the poor man Corvette from the 70's. The one piece transmission might be a 5- speed, from a later or different Opel model. 🤔

Pretty bad ass! The look, style, bodylines, etc on vehicles from back then is just something I love - plus things were actually made of metal & didn't break like today's cars. lol

AH so the random garden hose WAS in fact factory. Mine had a green hose. And it came loose while driving to prom. No wonder I got nauseous that night.

Hi. I am dismantling the drivetrain of my 1971 GT. All of it is getting replaced. I am Seacoast NH. Mine has a really interesting story.

The only thing with the Opel GT that always turned me away from them? Not a lot of easy interchange & upgrades that I've ever seen, not to mention parts availability. A friend went to school in Evansville, IN and his roommate's dad was an owner of an Indy race shop. He had one and it had a turbocharged Quad-4, brakes were off a 1LE Camaro I believe, suspension was done up "In house" and it was very bad-ass....but when dad owns a shop that builds Indy race cars, eh, it's easy-peasy & affordable.

So, what happend to Cora the 59 Beetle? Has Rachel abandoned that project? Anyway, the Opel GT also is a very nice car. Good luck with it! 🤘

Not at all! It’s still here, still plugging along. This was just too good a deal to pass up and way closer to being on the road than Cora. Her plan is to get the Opel on the road to drive while she’s working on Cora.

That’s why they were cool, because they weren’t a Vette 😂
