Opel Experimental GT

The Opel Experimental GT is a concept car made by the German automaker Opel and presented at the Frankfurt motor show in 1965. It was built on the basis of the Opel Kadett B and used a 1900 cubic centimetre engine of 90 horsepower derived from the one in the contemporary Rekord B. The interior was sporty in style, and the shape of the body recalled the Chevrolet Corvette C Sting Ray, which belonged to the same General Motors group. Three years later the Experimental GT became the basis of the production Opel GT coupe. Its bodywork was the work of Erhard Schnell.
