From Wikipedia



The Opel GT is a two-seat sports car first presented as a styling exercise in 1965 at the Paris and Frankfurt motor shows, and introduced as a production model late in 1968[1] by Opel, a German subsidiary of General Motors. It relied partly on components from the contemporary Opel Kadett B and had a body made by French contractor Brissonneau & Lotz.

Its styling has been likened to the 1968 Chevrolet Corvette which went on sale in September 1967.[2]

Although the life of the GT was limited to six model years, after a 34-year hiatus it returned as a 2007 model based on the Saturn Sky, and was built alongside it in Wilmington, Delaware, USA. The plant was scheduled to close in July 2009, ending production of the GT, and its siblings.
One unusual feature of the Opel GT was the operation of the pop-up headlights. They were manually operated, by way of a large lever along the center console next to the shifter. Designed by GM Stylist Clare MacKichan, the Opel GT was a fastback, that had neither an externally accessible trunk nor a conventional hatchback.
A gold 1969 Opel GT was Agent Maxwell Smart's car in the last season of the comedy TV series Get Smart. Agent 86 (Maxwell Smart) drove a GT in several episodes, with the car featuring prominently in the opening credits. In the 2008 movie adaptation Get Smart, Bernie Kopell (who played Siegfried in the original Get Smart series) makes a cameo appearance in which he drives a GT. This is a reference to the original cars of Get Smart, as the Sunbeam Tiger and the VW Karmann Ghia (Maxwell Smart's cars in Season 1-2 and 3-4, respectively) are in the scene with the GT.
One can fairly easily adapt larger engines, transmissions and brakes from newer Opels. For example, a fuel-injected 2.0 L engine (110 hp DIN) and a 5-speed Getrag manual transmission from an Rekord E or Manta B may be used to improve both fuel economy and performance

2003 Vauxhall VX Lightning Concept (based on the 2002 Pontiac Solstice Concept, as an indirect preview of the production car and a commemorative vehicle of the 100th anniversary of Vauxhall back then)
