Welcome to the OpelGT.Com-munity.
I'm assuming that you are out near Springfield. Here's a GT that's not too far away. Looks like it could use a little love, but a decent starting point from what I can see. Opel:eBay Motors (item 270463658732 end time Oct-07-09 14:25:09 PDT)
Cheers,
Ron in Indy

Ron, If that car is in St. Charles, IL then it is about 5 miles from me. I will try to locate it Monday. The Pics look very good.

John, Connie,
Joan and I want to thank you for all the work you do for us in Springfied. This is always one of the high spots of my summer. For the last 3 years I drove one of my Skys. As of last week I have started project 66. That is I am going to get a engine in my 73 GT and bring it to springfield 2010. I also think it is time to loose the Willis user name and use my real name Jerry. You guys keep in touch.

Thanks John. Can't wait for next year to roll around, Great time over there.Only bad part of that is that it is still on my b-day and that makes me a year older again

Thanks for the pics and video John & Hans! I just posted a slew of pics as well in the Events folder for 2009 Springfield Route 66 Festival. Sorry it took so long to get them up. Life has been way too busy of late, but a nasty cold and sore throat have slowed things down for me today. It was really great to see everyone in Springfield, and I've got next year's show on the calendar already.
