Photo Gallery «Opel's black widow - a very special record C»
In the 1960s, Opel was not officially allowed to actively participate in motor racing due to a US regulation. However, this did not prevent some enterprising people at Opel from building a racing car based on the Rekord C. However, when the company managers found out, the car had to be disposed of. And disappeared forever. But a few years ago, the "Black Widow", as the car was called, was rebuilt. And has been on display at classic car events ever since. This report describes what it feels like to take a ride in the 180 hp Rekord and shows the car in many pictures.
