Welcome to the Arena. Your collection sounds great and I would love to see a photo of an Opal, I am not familiar with them being from the states.
Never ask for talking about or showing my cars... I won't stop
Unfortunately my husband is infected with the Opel-virus too, so no one will stop me with adopting old and rusty cars...
Don't get me wrong, these are all cars which need lots of work, they are no perfect show cars and they aren't worth a lot of money. Most we got from friends for free or some bucks, we rescued them from the car dump...
This is me in 1993 with my first car ever. It's an Opel Manta, it's rusty, it's slow but I love it... and still have it:
