Wir leben Autos; the granddaddy to the Sky.

Today's way to spend ten grand is a 1971 Opel GT that runs and drives.

It has the 1.9L straight four, which is good for 83hp - though I'm guessing this one may be horses with gray manes, though the seller claims 74k miles.

The ad also claims it's the original interior, so that probably means "beat", and you can see some possible rust by the lights and above the rear wheel, though that could just be bad paint.

But if it runs and drives and sounds awesome, it might be worth thinking about as a weekend car to BS around in. With this car, I think you have some negotiation room, as he is  a bit high compared to what these cars seem to have gone for in the past in a little better shape. 

I'm sure a full restoration would be more than the car would be worth, but as a car to BS around in and take to Cars and Coffee, it might be a fun little get.
