6 volt Opel

baronbors · 10-07-2006

OK- just waiting for the responses on this ebay # 110041024638. I didn't realize that the Gt was once a 6 volt- would this be a PO modification and why would you change from an original 12 volt to a 6 volt?

lezliewk · 10-07-2006

Yep I saw that also, I bought a 69 and a 70 new,both were 12 volts

I don't know where this guy is from but is says one owner car

As far as I know there has never been a 6 volt system in the GT. I can`t see it mentioned in the 1968-1973 OPEL and GT PARTS BOOK either (got it 2 days ago from e-bay

). Only 12 volts.

looks like another seller with no knowledge of the mark
car would not be fun to drive with the new ground clearance also , i know from when i first changed to jag axles and i could crawl through under the car without a jack and that car is up the same sort of height

Ad reads that it also has a/c, but I cant see controls, vents or compressor for one. Might be one GT that could actually do 150 though..lol. Lot of horseys for the weight. I do like the cloth seats.

Have contacted him with short history of Opel models and suggested deletion of any 6V reference for post '64 Opel models. Let's just wait and see if he's really interested in ad accuracy . . .

He emailed me and is selling for someone else, said they told him when coverted to the 350 engine he switched it to 12 v from 6v,

, this guy I would guess has never saw the car just goes on what is told to him. Oh well we all know
