1971 Opel GT Convertible Project
This is not just any Opel GT... This is a custom-built "Convertible" Opel GT from the collection of Jim Simpson of Whidbey Island, WA. The top has been... Let's say... "Vetted" with a removable, Targa-type, roof making it a one-of-a-kind Opel. Jim has been custom building cars for decades and just plain ran out of burners on the stove for this car. This will make a great car to have in the stable for any custom builder or collector.
This Opel project is an open canvas and comes as-is. The new owner will be able to inject any thoughts of design into it as come to mind. What would you do?... A simple stock "convertible"?... A nice little V6 package?... Or go with a modern Hybrid/Electric design? This blank canvas awaits another artist.
