even a 2.2/4 cih would spice it up nice they are not a heavy carThom71GT said:Ok, sorry but Im not a purest on things like this. Do you all have any idea how freaking cool and unique that car would be if you chopped and sectioned it and threw a small V-8 in there. Narrow the rear end a bit and put a screaming paint job on it.
This would be such a freaking cool car
To consider anything but restoration back to original with a car this rare, especially here in US, is nuts!! . . .

Would make an interesting German street rod with a stroker CIH engine and period-correct wheels.
Stephen, you gonna bid on it?
I got a email yesterday asking if I could help sell it or what to do with it.tekenaar said:Begs the question, is it yours Charles? How are you "involved" in this?![]()
Nah, not really. Though, admittedly, a 42K mile, all original 1961 Rekord II with it's well documented history does make a nice addition to mine.GoinManta said:Otto, you competing with Gary to have the wildest collection of rare Opel metal in the country?
Congrats![]()
Not only that, but car also has dimmer switch on the floor . . . what a piece of nostalgia this car turned out to be! I remember being somewhat miffed at the audacity of the car makers changing from the floor mounted dimmer switch at the time . . . same with vent windows a bit later.tekenaar said:Just noticed this when looking at specs . . . three on the tree! How cool is that!![]()
