I found an Opel GT (finally) that is near-ish to me. I am going to go look it over but I need to know what to look for first. This is my first Opel and I am the stereotypical car-clueless chick (I admit it). Here is what I've been told by the seller:
'73 Opel GT
Factory Carb
Carpet in the back is "ok"
No Carpet in front - floormats
No Rust
No Wrecks
Garaged for 20 years
1.9L
4 speed
No original radio - Pioneer Super Tuner
Motor "good"
Tranny "good"
Headlights work
All gauges work
dash has a cover over it
seats have the old vinyl on them some cracks
NEEDS NEW BRAKES
Just had the gas tank removed and cleaned and re-lined
Put on a new fuel sender and all new fuel lines with an in-line filter
The asking price is $2000
I looked at the photos and it looks like its in good shape outside cosmetically.
What do I need to know? THANKS MANY MANY MUCH-ES
