1972-73 Opel GT

Spotted a red one of these a few minutes ago, drove right in front of the house while I was in the yard. Super rare these days in our snowy/salty climate. Too fast to get him to stop. Very sweet little car tho'.

I love these! One of the nicest curves on a car ever!

Like a baby 'vette!

They are iti-bity.

Most of the Models had a 1.9 litre in line 4 motor ranginging from 83-102 hp and weighed less than 2000 lbs. Not bad for the time.

I don't know about the Izuzu but the GT was build from Opel Kadett B parts and on the same chassis.

And there in lies the whole issue I have with these. They look jaw droppingly gorgeous, but the first turn of the key in the deeply cowled dashboard sitting in your hauntingly low-to-the-ground superb seating position and it's dissapointment all round. It should of had a small narrow angle 'V' in it to give it some ( as the Sex Pistols once said) bollocks.
