Vehicle Description
4814-TPA 1969 OPEL GT
This 1969 Opel GT, one of 31,474 1.9L versions built in its debut
year, flaunts a Rally Red exterior that captures the essence of
late '60s automotive design. The sleek, aerodynamic body features a
distinctive clamshell hood and manual pop-up headlights, giving
this compact sports car its unique "mini Corvette" look. Chrome
front and rear bumpers add a touch of classic elegance, while the
13-inch Opel chrome wheels wrapped in 175/70R13 tires provide a
sturdy stance. The steel body maintains its original curves,
showcasing the GT's timeless appeal and marking it as a true icon
of European sports car engineering.
Inside, the black vinyl interior creates a driver-focused cockpit
that's both stylish and functional. The bucket seats offer ample
support for spirited driving, while the floor-mounted shifter falls
naturally to hand. The dash layout is clean and uncluttered,
featuring easy-to-read gauges that keep vital information in clear
view. Despite its compact size, the GT's interior provides a
surprisingly comfortable space for two, proving that good things
indeed come in small packages. The absence of power amenities like
air conditioning or power steering keeps the driving experience
pure and engaging, just as it was intended back in 1969.
Powering this Opel GT is a peppy 1.9-liter inline-four engine,
mated to a slick-shifting 4-speed manual transmission. This
powertrain combination delivers a lively and engaging driving
experience, perfect for carving up backroads or cruising down the
highway. The engine bay showcases the original 1.9-liter
powerplant, identifiable by its casting number 19S 0332473. A
single 2-barrel carburetor feeds the four cylinders, while a
belt-driven cooling fan and standard radiator keep temperatures in
check. The GT's lightweight design and well-tuned suspension,
featuring leaf springs with shocks up front and coil springs with
shocks in the rear, contribute to its nimble handling
characteristics. Power Disc brakes up front provide confident
stopping power, enhancing the overall driving dynamics of this
classic sports car.
