"This is an untouched and complete original car that will require welding, new paint, and a mechanical inspection. After this is done, you've got a very popular and hard-to-find enthusiast car."

Description

The first owner of this car worked in Germany in the 1960s and 1970s, where he purchased it new from Radlmayer in Munich in 1970 and used it there until 1972, when he returned to Sweden.
It was run by the same owner for a few years and received new paint in the mid 1970s when the old one was bleached, among other things. The car was stored in a dry garage in 1978 with 9778 kilometers on the odometer and had not been moved since until the current owner purchased it in 2017.
The current owner knew the previous owner and wanted to buy the car for a long time before finally doing so in 2017.
When the car was taken off the road register in the 1980s, new documents have been ordered in order to re-register the vehicle.

Because the current owner does not have enough time to restore this one-of-a-kind object, he has decided to sell it to any Opel enthusiast.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine rolls over but not started; it's been sitting since 1978 and will require a thorough inspection and review.

  • Interior condition:

    Only the carpet is in bad shape. Very nice and complete original interior that needs a recond. There are no speaker holes in the parcels shelf.

  • Exterior condition:

    Repainted in the 1970s, it looks great, but paint bubbles have formed on the right side, so it will need to be repainted. It has excellent chromework throughout, but the original wheels will need to be painted.
    The vinyl roof is in good shape, but it has begun to lift near the doors. Rust can be found in the car's sills and underbody, as shown in the photos.

  • General condition:

    Since it has been garaged since 1978, no one has welded or messed with the car, making it a great and worthwhile renovation project for someone.

Facts about the model

Commodore A (1967-71)
Opel hade tillverkat Rekord-modellen med sexcylindrig Kapitän-motor sedan 1964. Till 1967 blev denna en egen modellserie som Commodore A. Bilen skiljde sig från den enklare syskonmodellen genom ny kylargrill, mer kromutsmyckning och mer exklusiv inredning. Förutom sedan-modellen fanns bilen med en ovanligt lyckad coupé-kaross.

Commodoren hade en ny generation motorer, med kamaxeln placerad i cylinderhuvudet. Kamaxeln låg vid sidan av ventilerna, till skillnad från en SOHC-motor, och öppnade dessa via vipparmar. Denna motor fanns kvar i olika Opel-modeller fram till mitten av 1990-talet.

Tillverkningen uppgick till 156 497 exemplar.
