When you open the posting window to type your message, page down under the window, and you'll see a "Manage Attachments" button, that's what you use

It's really quite simple. When you post a thread, before you click on "Submit Reply"" scroll down the screen a bit further and you'll see a block called "Manage Attachments" Click on that, then you can add a file from your computer, in a myriad of types, including pictures with a .jpg extension. Although there are size limits. HTH.

Yep it's a '69. The Vin # puts it in the model year; and every thing else I can see on it matches with OMC's "What year is it?" guide.

Excerpt from Opel Motorsports Club website:

1969 Opel GT:

Big-selling year for the GT, with buyers often having to wait months for delivery. Perhaps more unusual design parts are on the '68-'69 GT's than any of the later years, with some that are not easily interchangeable. A unique "brown" tan colored interior was offered with a forest green exterior for only '68-'69. Another color combination was a red interior with a silver exterior, which is now rarely seen as that color paint faded quickly and was often replaced. 1969 Opels were frequently junked in California in the 1980's, as the clumsy horsepower-robbing "A.I.R. "smog" system was required to be fully operational for state vehicle registration.

(Chassis Number starts with #94-1535504)

Quick Look Clues:

Rectangular dash indicator lenses on dash face plate
Button on end of turn signal stalk on steering column
Lower window crank handle position on driver's side door
Shoulder belt mounted just below side quarter window
Other Parts:

A.I.R. emissions system on passenger side of engine (pump, hoses, etc.)
Larger temperature sender on thermostat housing
Single retainer bracket on underside of hood
Wiper arm on driver's side without metal "wing"
Suspension parts narrower: Inner tie rods, Cross Member
Steering Coupler under dash has metal flex plates (not rubber)
Headlight mechanism on passenger side has additional micro switch
Throttle rod is shorter on driver's side of engine
Ashtray lid is hinged with vinyl cover
Cigarette lighter and dash mount is narrower
Headlight lever is thinner, squared-off plastic
Carpet piece under parking brake handle
Window regulator pulley is wider than later models
Car jack has spherical "ball" red handle

Come to think of it I've got one of those red ball jacks too. It came with an early 70 I've got.

Hey now..... I was actually looking at that car!!! I kinda like it! It does have a bit more chrome to it and it even looks good with the luggage rack. My main concern would be how much rust is really under that top? How much do you think that option added to the original price tag? Was it even an option that year?? Or was this a Home-made sorta deal? I honestly dont know....

Joe;
The vinyl top was not a factory option, but, some dealers would have it done, just as something "novel" But, in looking at the car, I'm almost positive that the GT for sale is one that used to belong to our own Charles Goin...
