I had one. 1970 Opel GT 4sp. 1.9L (I now have a bike that big! - lol)
The head kept cracking.
As a 16yo Kid in 1979 , I never had enough money or sense to repair it properly the 1st time so I was always under the hood.
Fun car for a kid though.
I used to tell people it was a Corvette until I washed it in hot water, causing it to shrink.

I check 'em out on Ebay once in a while to reminisce...

Oh, and I have a 1/25 AMT/Ertl model - same color as mine was; Red
