How many GTs left???

tbags32 · 10-05-2006

I'm sure this topic has been covered before however I couldn't find it. Does anyone have an idea of how many GTs remain in the U.S. ????? I know that around 73000 were imported between 1968 and 1973 but how many remain???

Thanks
Tom

Still a good question ...

Last time we estimated anything between 20,000 and 25,000 in any state of repair (wish I lived in THAT State!

); as many as 5,000 to 7,500 still driving and over 1,000 in tip-top repair; with maybe 250 to really well restored or original GTs. Only ONE Ms. Opel though ..

The numbers can always go UP !

Have a look at the Germany GT Club register:

And keep adding to this Thread about VIN # / Engine # :

Both projects are ongoing - bit like refurbishing/restoring GTs!

And let's not forget one never-registered, never-sold to the public, and never-driven on the road Opel GT currently residing inside a Buick dealership in Redding California!
