I'm known by the truck drivers that deliver to my warehouse as the "Opel Guy", well, my trucker buddy from ABF was telling me of a bright orange GT in the Lawrenceville area that he had seen with the tag "72 GT" or something like that, we wouldn't know of anyone like that would we Matt?

GT at Euro Car Show in Cazenovia, NY
I stopped at the Euro show in Cazenovia NY today and spotted an orange GT. Didn't see the owner but the sheet on the windshield said it's owned by a guy from Fayetteville NY.
Just wondered if he's on the site. Don |

Silver GT on My Classic Car
While getting caught up on watching My Classic Car episodes, I spotted a GT in the opening scenes. The episode aired May 24, 2009 and was at the Peach City Beach Cruise in Penticton, BC Canada. Unfortunately, Dennis didn't do a spot on the car. It was for sale too! Does the car belong to one of our Canadian members? See attached photo...

Recently spotted in Portland, Oregon - RIP
wrecked manta1.jpg
wrecked manta2.jpg It was sold at auction this morning but I couldn't get the details so I left a note in the front seat to contact me. If it's going to a wrecking yard, I would love to know. I really want the rims! The only peek I got inside the engine compartment leads me to believe it's not a stock engine compartment. I saw what appeared to be goodies!

Sighting in Dallas
I was at a happy hour with some co-workers earlier this evening and I saw a yellow GT cruise by twice! It was at the corner of McKinney and Lemmon Avenue in Uptown. Was it any of you, or know who it could've been? I wish I had parked my GT in a more visible spot, maybe he would've stopped for a chat! He seemed like a taller guy with light colored hair (but I wasn't really looking at the driver)
