1969 Opel GT Coupe

NEW LOWER RESERVE !!! BID TO WINPLEASE BID ONLY IF YOU ARE REAL and DONT HAVE TO ASK MOMMY ORYOUR WIFE - I had to end it early last time because of idiots who dontunderstand really how ebay works.IF you have never viewed one of our auctions before be prepared to seean auction the way they where meant to be seen long distance !!Sure the girls are a nice touch but we really do show viewers almost everyarea of the car we can think of. We pull off the rims jack it up and try toget pics in areas most other sellers dont even bother trying.(watch us in the near future when we get our borescope !! and we start addingpics of inside the cylinders and gas tanks !!)Barn find that has been taken our of storage in OK and on its way back tobeing a road worthy vehicle for someone who really loves these cars .Even the tires on the car are old bias ply from the 80s.Titled as a 1969 Opel GT . not many left on the road thats for sure.But still have a great following and lots of places to buy repop parts for it.Chances are if you buy it and take it to the next cruise night you probablywont see another one around the same event ! Dare to be different !Brief History on the car: spent most of its life in OK and the past 15 yrs in agarage in OK. It was recently brought to Tucson and got running again . Some ofthe work done is:NEW: fuel lines electric fuel pump vacuum lines fuel filter and the Weber carb wasrebuilt. (although the car still idles higher then it should so not sure if its a vacuumleak or what.) The car has a header on it too which makes the car louder then youmay be use to and there is a gasket leak where the header bolts to the head underthe hood which is loud.Brakes: include new rear wheel cylinders shoes and hardware kits ALSO both frontcalipers rebuilt and brake master too in the last yr.Gas tank was cleaned and resealed about 6m agoOnce all this got done the car was driven on its maiden voyage around the blocka few times and it did okay for what it was.

Odometer shows 18xxxx miles on it but chances are is has rolled overat least once. BUT KEEP in mind this car has been in a garage for manyyrs off and on so maybe it is original miles.Its not been on the road since the 90s.

1 of the HOTTEST Import CARS BEING RESTORED when you can find one !

DRIVETRAIN:under the hood is the original the best I can tell so if youdecide to restore it back to stock you are good to go although some peopleare doing engine swaps in these cars too during the restoration.The clutch trans and rearend all seem okay too for their age. The Weber and header on these motors added some decent hp to the stock set upmaking them more fun to drive then avg and still keeping an almost stock appearance. Motor has a little clatter under the valve cover so not sure ifthe valves are adjustable but just thought Id mention it. Maybe its just becauseits ideling at 1800 rpms.

INTERIOR: as you can see in the pics below the interior is pretty wornand beat up. Under the carpet the floors are actually pretty solid esp in therear. Most of the vinyl etc is worn and needs replacing. The factory gaugesall seem intact and I think most of them work still. Shifter feels good andrest of the dash buttons etc are in pretty good shape. Except the old 80s radiohaha. Not sure if they had a back seat but if so this one is missing. Not surewhat else I can say but check out all the pics and lmk if you have any questions.Lever for the headlights works but very stiff and tight. Interior dash lights workwell and actually look great at night ! Doors open and close well and seem toalign up well meaning the hinges are in good shape too.

Exterior: originally the car was Aztec Gold while at sometime back in the 80sthe car was repainted a slightly different shade of Gold. Since then the car got a fewbumps and dents. Also rust.. you will see in the pics rust around some of the rearwheels rear 1/4s part of the lower rockers and the large pan under the front batteryarea got the worst of it. Some other key areas didnt get any rust luckily. So expect tohave to get some patch panels done around the car for a proper restoration. The paintin areas is so baked its down to the primer and there is alot of surface rust as wellon the car but its really not as bad as you may think so please Check outALL the pics well in and around and UNDER the car so you can see for yourself whereits located etc. Front windshield is cracked yes. IF you win the car and want it fixed beforeshipping out lmk and Ill see what sort of deal I can get for you. I have some good connectionson getting glass done locally. Some of the outside lights work and some dont.Obviously this car has the look of a shrunken down Corvette its no secret. Andthe factory Rally rims with caps and beauty rings help pull off the look even more.The rear taillight panel though actually looks more like a Ford Daytona Coupefrom the mid 60s and Im pretty sure that was no coincidence either. Look at therear of a Daytona Coupe its pretty sexy.

SUSPENSION: the suspension looks mostly original thus far its going to needsome restoration here Im sure but its a good starting platform. Driving it around theblock it feels pretty solid and good for a car this old but handles like you may expecttoo and thats on OLD OLD skinny bias ply tires. I can imagine how good this car wouldhandle with a nice set of 205-50-15s and some 7 or 8" rims to match. I noticed the rearsuspension has a Panard bar under it. Not sure if its factory or not but they do helpwith the handling side of the cars DNA. I can see this car at a local SCCA event howcool that would be to run against some modern stuff. Not sure if any of the bushingsunder the car need replacing but Id guess some are going to need to be done during itsrestoration process. I guess you could even go up to some 17" wheels and tires toofor a more modern look and feel just depends on what your plans are for the car.Even as aged as it is the car still handles great driving it around the parking lot.Its like a little go kart !Handles great like these cars where meant too. Tires are dry and old.
