1968 Opel Kadett - Inquire - Las Vegas, NV -
1968 Opel Kadett L Wagon
VIN: 391383662
Initially produced from 1937 to 1940 by the German automaker Opel, production of the Kadett ceased in mid-1940 as hostilities increased during the Second World War. Production resumed in 1962 with the introduction of the Kadett A, which was designed to be an affordably priced family car, and was meant to compete directly with Volkswagen, which had dominated the economy passenger car market since the end of World War II. In 1965 the Kadett A was replaced by the Kadett B, which was slightly larger overall, and sleeker looking than its predecessor, yet still retained the same styling that allowed it to remain an affordable family automobile. Here in the United States, the Opel Kadett was sold under Buick, and was marketed in the U.S. the same as in Europe, as an affordable family car. Affectionately called the “Mini-Brute” in Buick advertisements, it boasted ample cargo space and was sold and serviced by more dealers than any other import at the time. Although known as a Kadett B, the “B” was simply a term to denote the generation and base model Kadett’s were simply called the Kadett while higher trim versions were known as the Kadett L or LS, and featured more luxurious trim, extra chrome, and bumper overriders. This 1968 Opel Kadett L 2-door station wagon, also known as a shooting brake, has gone through a detailed restoration and is a multiple award winner, having taken home many first place, best in show, and people’s choice awards from various car shows. The Kadett is powered by a rebuilt 1.1 liter overhead valve 4-cylinder water-cooled engine with twin Solex 35 PDSI carburetors, and is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission. Making 55-horsepower, the engine has been fully detailed and runs excellently. The odometer on the Kadett B shows 84,531 miles, which is believed to be original according to a running log supplied with the car, although given the restoration completed on the Kadett, it feels almost like a new car. The interior of the Kadett features a redone headliner and new carpet while the seat upholstery appears to be original and is in excellent shape. The original Kadett Delco AM radio is present and works, while under the dash a vintage Audiovox FM converter allows listeners to tune-in to their favorite modern radio stations. Additionally, the Kadett has all of its original German Sekurit glass, and under the hood it retains all the proper German parts from Bosch, Solex, SWF, and ATE. This Opel Kadett shows extremely well with its bright red exterior and black interior and is a stunning vehicle, as is evident by the awards it has won at numerous car shows, and as one of the most successful Opel Kadett models ever produced that sentiment is surely not an anomaly.Source: https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/de….html?refer=rss

1994 Opel - Auction - Vejle, - Imported to Denmark in 2008 partly full service book, with km. Warranty. The best Opel engine the 2.5 v6 aut. Velour seats. Renovated gearbox in 2016, cat. also, replaced in 2017, driver's seat new posted, rust treated frame in 2011/12. New brakes in 2016. Org. Alarm you must start immediately after it is unlocked otherwise the alarm will go on, and you must start again. This nice Yougtimer from Opel and its 2.5 V6 engine is more than an affordable entry to the coming Youngtimers for very low money. They will only come up from now. During its lifetime, the Calibra was much more popular in Europe, and outsold its nearest rival, the Ford Probe, which was considered to be underpowered, and very American for most European drivers. However, in the United Kingdom, it failed to outsell the Rover 200 Coupé, which offered comparable performance, but without 4WD in the top of the range models. In 1990, after General Motors bought a stake in Saab, it was reported the Calibra would be badged as a Saab in the United States, but these plans did not materialise. There were also plans for a cabriolet version to be produced, but these too failed to materialise, although Valmet Automotive built two fully working, red coloured prototypes in 1992 with the 2.0-litre, 8-valve engine. A third body was also produced for use in flexibility tests. Throughout the production run, several special edition models were launched. This began with the 1993 SE1, and ran through to the SE9 in 1997. These limited run editions had often unique aspects. For example, solar yellow paint on the SE2, or "Icelandic" blue on the SE6. Neither colours were found on any other Calibra. In September 1995, the Vectra A was replaced, but Calibra production continued until June 1997. Although a smaller coupé (the Tigra) was available, the marque was left without a mid-sized coupé until the Astra Coupé was launched in 2000, and with the introduction of the Opel Speedster in 2000, three years after the Calibra was discontinued, Opel finally offered a sports car again. It has been stated in numerous articles, websites and television shows that the world's fastest accelerating street legal car has been rumoured to be a 1993, RHD, Vauxhall Calibra, owned by Mr. Steve Pateman, boasting a 1.25 second 0 to 60 mile per hour time, and an 8.14 second quarter mile time. However, the car has been heavily modified, including a bigblock Chevrolet V8, and a steel tube chassis.
