I came "this" close to buying an Opal GT....wound up getting a new MG.
It was loads of fun driving it but it was easily the worst car I ever owned. MG Rust Orange with Navy Blue leather interior - it was hot back in the day.

Back in the day, Opels were sold via Buick dealers. The 67-68 Kadett featured a bullet proof 1.1 liter motor that after markets shops could hop up. The little engine would turn 7,000 rpm over and over. It was like a two stroke Kawasaki of the era.
