Some may not answer, but, you can look through the "Members List" and start PM'ing people....just a thought.

Nice to have another FL Opel owner close to me.
A few Opel folks around our area.
We rarely get together.......busy laying at the beach watching the girls or working on our Opel's????
No club that I know of.
We meet at Zephyrhills car show/auction once a year.
Like Gene said, look at the member list, maybe you can organize a meet!
It's so hot right now, A/C is working but struggling to keep my GT cool.
Send me a PM.

*Gene, If things get any worse, I will have to put a rifle rack in the back of my GT!

They do it on Wednesday nights over here. There is some pretty sweet rides that show up week after week.

Yes i am from NH. I was born and raised in Portsmouth. I moved down here about 3 years ago. The salt water air of being on the seacoast is about the only thing i miss about up there.

[LASERMAN]

I'm in Orlando near UCF.

I have never seen an Opel Gt on the road since I got to Florida in 2000.

I've had mine a few months now. Still looking to put A\C in her, but she's my daily driver now!

The only time I don't use her is when I'm towing my skis, going to Lowe's for supplies, or when I REALLY need to get somewhere on time -

I have to figure in a 20 minute delay for every stop I make, because of the people who stop me to ask about the car!

I have issues with my fuel gauge too. I found that on mine there is a bad connection in the big plug that goes into the gauge cluster. I haven't really figured out if its in the plug its self or the gauge cluster. I can move the whole wiring harness up by the plug and get the gauge to work (for awhile). Nothing else in the cluster seems to be effected and works properly so i don't know lol.
