Today’s car on sale is the breathtakingly beautiful Opel GT. It’s a compact German sports car that’s quite unlike the contemporary American cars that ruled the Sixties and Seventies. With its steel unibody chassis and rotary flipping headlamps, the GT was powered by a 1.9-liter four-cylinder unit. This particular 1972 Opel GT has got just 4,200 miles on it and is up for grabs in Covington, Kentucky. It embodies the quirky nature of Opel’s cars back then, and is a fantastic choice to make if you want to be known for distinctiveness, especially when you rock up at a classic car meet or drive event.
This 1972 Opel GT wears a Sun Yellow suit, shining brightly while it rolls on simple 13-inch steel wheels. It’s a Luxus trim vehicle, we’re told. Those interesting headlamps might look like traditional pop-ups but in fact, they rotate sideways, at the same time and in the same direction. Plus, they’re not powered, but manually activated via a center console-mounted lever. Other features of this car include chrome bumpers and circular taillamps that reminisce back to those worn by a certain prolific Italian automaker in the same period. Oh, and this car is positively diminutive. It’s under 162 inches long, just over 62 inches wide, and a mere 48 inches in height. The black interior of this 1972 Opel GT features a full suite of gauges including a tachometer, a heating and ventilation system, and a newer radio. This is a retro-styled unit with modern media connectivity choices. We see that an aftermarket clock has also been installed within the speedometer’s glass surface. The car is a two-seater with black leather seats, and a padded luggage area behind them. Here, we can also spot two aftermarket speakers, driven by the modern head unit in the center console.
This 1972 Opel GT packs a 1.9-liter four-cylinder engine. The cam-in-head unit uses a single Solex caburetor. It’s paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and the car is rear-wheel drive. You’ve got worm and roller steering, front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. There’s a rear rigid axle suspension with coil springs, while the front uses an independent double wishbone set-up.

One of Germany’s lesser-known automakers, Opel has been quietly making solid vehicles for nearly a century. The company’s roots date back over 160 years, when it was founded by Adam Opel and started making sewing machines. One of their notable models from the Sixties and Seventies has got to be the Opel GT. This handsome front-engined two-seat sports car with rear-wheel drive was made between 1968 and 1973 and quickly made waves for its design. Today, we have one of these relatively rare cars on sale, a 1972 Opel GT from Covington, Kentucky. With just over 4,100 miles to its name, this is your chance to pick up something that doesn’t always appear on the market.

Tired of today’s appliances on wheels? May we offer this Garnet Red 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu for your well-being and overall enrichment of quality of life? It’s a stalwart American classic from the famous Chevy Chevelle family, and comes with just 8,000 miles on the clock after some refreshment work.

Ever wondered what families drove in the Fifties? This green and cream 1957 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Sedan is one such possibility. The Chevy 210 range was introduced in 1953 and ran for four years until the Biscayne took over. It was targeted at the middle class buyer, and positioned as a midrange car, with some luxury appointments as well as economical features. Today’s example comes to you from Hillsboro, Ohio, with around 73,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt 235ci straight six, a repainted exterior and a reupholstered interior in matching green and cream two-tone. Now, it makes for a fine classic car to own and drive every now and then. The current owner says that this baby has got under 3,000 miles on it since restoration.
Everyone knows about the Mercedes-Benz R107-era SL-Class that is one of the most definitive classics you can get your hands on. But did you know that there was also a C107 variant, with a fixed hardtop and a notably different upper body design? That’s what we’ve got here with this sleek white 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC from Beverly Hills, California. This car sports a lovely four-seat tan interior, a 4.5-liter V8 under its hood, and has covered a decent 165,000 miles. That tells us that it’s not a garage queen, but a cruiser, meant for devouring hundreds of miles of open road.
