Hey everyone...I'm really not a newbie...I've been a member since '02!!!
Just been MIA for the last....oh.... 6 years or so. Man, this site has changed! I joined so I could hopefully find an (affordable??) OPEL for sale near my local. Unfortunately...still don't own one, but always look'n!!!
Anyways...first car!!! bought with my own cash ($ 650.00 paper route $$)... Fuel injected, Signal Yellow, '75 Opel Manta. Sporty little bugger. Used to cruise hwy 100 in West Allis, Kraco speakers and all. Had all the chicks want'n a ride.

Cool site....Thanks Gary for (Re) hooking me up!
Man...w/ the $ on the GT's now a days...can't see myself ever owning one

Check craigs list, there are a bunch of Opels on it now. Many are less than $1000. They need work, but hey that point is to own one, right? Then you build it how you want it.

Where in GA did you move to? There's a large group of us here. Post some pictures of the Manta

Opelwasp, Good idea about craigslist...found a couple somewhat close. Too much for me to spend at the moment. Actually, I'm currently in the market for a small SUV (the family car). Our Chevy Venture well....need I say more.

Gene, First Mtn City (Jasper...I think that's what the water tower says???). When I get more time, I'll try to dig up some info. on the clubs down here. That's really cool to see a lot of interest in Opels here in Ga. Sounds promising for a future, rust-free, investment. Since I've been here, I only saw one GT on 575 in Woodstock.
Photo maybe hard to obtain. Last I looked, I only found one photo...and that's 850 miles north, at the folk's house. I'll try to get my mom to find and mail down.

Thanks for the feedback guys!
