Rhapakatui Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 The Opel GT. There was one in front of a derelict old mechanic's shop near here for decades. I decided I might be interested in it, and it disappeared. I was all ready to correct you and remembered that the Saturn convertible was rebadged as the Opel GT for a short run, so I checked and found out that Opel was actually just the German GM.

smoke Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Right, and then there is the Conrero Opel GT, which is a little bit Italian. Quote Link to comment
Rhapakatui Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Hmm.... It'd be fun to swap an SR20 into one of those. I'd paint "Axis Powered" down both sides. 1 Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 I don't know if I would bother honestly. The Z will hand it its ass in most things. The Conrero version was a pretty nasty little bugger though. Quote Link to comment
Rhapakatui Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 I imagine it'd be a fun ride with modern 4 cylinder in there. If it's like everything else though, there's probably a forum out there full of guys bitching about how much they sell for now while at the same time pushing the price of a shell through the roof. It was something I looked in to before I became a member here and got my eternal 620 project started. Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Oh, I'm sure, but they blame Letterman for the price increase. 1 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 You sure it wasn't Ferguson that did the Opel thing? Quote Link to comment

housew Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 so on ones seen anything cool just cause in the last 3 days just cause i saw a Citroen? Quote Link to comment
Rhapakatui Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 That car's too strange. People see it and forgot why they came in here. Just stare and try to decide if they like it or hate it, then realize they need to get back to work. 3 Quote Link to comment
RatVonDude Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Citreon SM in Maynard ma goofiest car i've ever driven. Super cool. Front wheel drive, masseratti quad cam motor, hydraulic ride height adjustment, super comfey, quiet, clean, and for sale. PM me if you know anyone looking for one. I think those things are capable of driving on only three wheels cuz they are so well balanced. Quote Link to comment
