Description from the seller
IN RISALTO
* Equipped with Federperiti Conformità Guarantee Expertise
* Equipped with ASI Historical Relevance Certificate (CRS)
* Original 19S engine with 103hp, rare and sought-after
* Original Cardinal Red color
* Only 68,000 kilometers recorded
* Recently passed technical inspection with no defects
STORIA / PANORAMICA
The Opel GT is one of the most iconic European sports cars of the late 1960s. Introduced in 1968 and produced until 1973, it immediately captivated the public with its original design and lines strongly inspired by American large sports coupés, while keeping compact dimensions and a reliable, sporty mechanical from German engineering. Its unmistakable silhouette, characterized by the famous "Coca-Cola Bottle" line, still exerts timeless charm today, making it one of Opel’s most sought-after models by enthusiasts and collectors.
The example offered at auction is a desirable version equipped with the original 19 S engine, finished in the elegant factory Cardinal Red color and enhanced by the ASI Historic Relevance Certificate. The car has traversed only 68,000 kilometers and preserves a high degree of authenticity.
EXTERIOR
The bodywork presents generally solid and well-preserved. The paint, restored a few years ago in the correct original Cardinal Red color, still shows excellent gloss and enhances the car’s sporty lines, and is in superb condition. A professional polishing and detailing treatment was recently performed to further highlight its aesthetic presentation.
Gauge checks with a micrometer have not revealed any signs of accidents or significant structural repairs.
The underbody has never undergone a full restoration and presents as a well-preserved unit, generally solid and coherent with the car’s history. The car is compliant with the technical inspection and suitable for road circulation.
INTERIOR
The interior shows only minimal signs of use consistent with the car’s age, but remains complete, original, and fully usable. The door panels are well preserved and the dashboard retains all original era instrumentation, contributing to the authenticity of the cabin. A professional interior sanitization treatment has recently been performed.
MECCANICA
The car retains its original 19 S engine, identified by the correct engine code and considered the most powerful and desirable version of the Opel GT range. The propulsion is kept in efficiency through regular tune-ups, starts easily, and runs smoothly. The transmission, clutch, and drivetrain operate correctly, as does the braking system, which is functional.
The technical inspection was recently passed without defects and is valid until March 2027, confirming the vehicle’s suitability for road use.
As with any classic car, before undertaking long journeys it is advisable to perform a preventive general check.
A splendid Opel GT 1900, offered in the sought-after original configuration with 19 S engine, Cardinal Red color, and ASI Historic Relevance Certificate. A fascinating German 1960s sportscar that combines iconic design, authenticity, and increasing collectibility.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
