the rare combination of a British Green body and black interior
|
According to the excellent reference book "Opel GT Projekt 1484", the British Green body colour (15 or 336) was indeed available in Europe with the option of black (751) or beige (701) interior. That was for 1900 models in 1969. The European 1100 models always had the non perforated black (451) interior. In 1970, the blue (711) interior option was added for the 1900. Anyone ever seen this combination?
I have read a lot about the specific details related to my car but it is a USA Opel GT. As I understand it the British Green was accented with a Buckskin interior.

In the USA, British Green was called GT Metallic Green and was only available for the 1969 model year and only with the beige (701) interior (both 1100 and 1900 models). So according to the book, the buckskin (721) interior was never used in combination with the British Green... Tom, what interior code does your tag show?
