History
The Opel GT was introduced as a concept car in 1965 at the Frankfurt and Paris motor shows. Its production version debuted in 1968, offering a sporty alternative to the more utilitarian vehicles Opel was known for. The GT was well-received for its design and handling, although its performance was modest compared to other sports cars of the era. Production ended in 1973 due to changing market conditions and the oil crisis.
On track
The Opel GT saw limited motorsport involvement, primarily in amateur racing and rally events. Its lightweight design and nimble handling made it a popular choice for privateers in various racing series during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
