Original 73 Opel GT owners manual

ParkerVH28 · 06-15-2005

I have spent some time looking at old posts and various links trying to find an original 73 Opel GT Owners manual and have not had any luck. Does anyone know if you can still even get one? Or would someone be willing to get theirs copied? But would like to find one as I am sure a lot of us would.

Thanks

Parker,

I have what is in essence an update manual from Buick that details any changes that occured from previous years. If interested it is yours.

Are you looking for the owners manual which fit in the glove box or a Factory Service Manual?

They both pop up on E-bay once in a while.

Gil at OGTS has a reproduction owners manual which was taken from a 70 or 71 GT. Most things apply except they have some of the european options listed, like motorized windshield washer squirters and driving lamp bulb replacement instructions.

gtmax, sure I would love to have it, or a copy. jlthunder I will call Gill and see what he has. Thanks do you think Gil would have an original lug wrench for the GT too?

Parker,

Now this is a shop manual update. Not an Owners Manual tahat you find in the glove box of your new Opel. If You still want it send me an address in a PM.

Oh!, Well I have the GM 73 shop manual for the GT. Will this add anything to it? What I was looking for was the little one in the glove box.

Thanks

Gil should have a lused factory lug wrench, if not members here with parts cars should have one. Just put the request out there and you will get a response. More than you might expect
