Hi,
Greetings from Seacoast, NH.
My name is Dan and my first car was a '75 kadett when I was 15. Sadly I never got it running for more than 30 secs.
The best part of the whole experience was the picture of the GT in the Chilton's manual. I dreamed of it almost every night.
4 years later I bought and restored wretched '71 1900. This was in 1989.
Unfortunately, it was short lived. Due in great part to my being 19 and not very bright. I totaled it.
The love is still there for the brand and the model and now 20 years later I am seriously contemplating another GT project.
Anyway, I hope to make use of this fine site in my endeavors.
Hi Dan I'm in Mass and I'm rebuilding a 1970 Opel Kadett B that came from NH. Was a barn find with 23000 miles on the clock still got the original NH plate that was issued to the car. Here's the link to follow the car.

Welcome on board Dan......the disease "Opelitis" is a world wide! Once you've had, i'm afraid to say that sadly there is no cure.
Take some advise and do think......just do!

I am in Mass and have a 72 GT that I would like to sell. I drove it into the garage 25ish years ago and never took it out again! My husband just is finishing up restoring his. I figure that it will be easy to sell mine when people look at his. He did an awesome job. So, if anyone is interested, let me know.
Welcome aboard, you will find incredible amounts of information about Opels on this site plus have access to some of the best experts around regarding these cars.
My name is Terry and I am an Opelholic.
