I had an Opal GT in the early seventies, did it come from an opal mine

Yes it did.
Looks like a wanna-be corvette.

That is a very remote part of the state.

It was more of a mini-corvette. A car ahead of its time

Most fun car I ever owned. Two-seater, five on the floor, looked like a miniature Corvette. Drove it for 3 years and it was a chick magnet. Only sports car I ever owned.

In 1969-70, it was a big hit, but it didn't stay hot and only lasted three or four model years. The rims didn't hold up to NYC potholes.

When we lived in Japan, my Father had an Opel built in Germany. There were few German cars in Japan at the time. Later, Opel became a Japanese company affiliated with Buick.
