Je zag er heel veel rondrijden in ons land tijdens de jaren `60.

I remember seeing these cars here in the US.

[@RalphTSMobiles]

@@Modeltnick that could be a possibility, however I’m not aware that these cars were shipped to the US as well! Don’t forget to watch the other Rekord story videos as well! - Ralph

@@RalphTSMobiles My high school buddy had the station wagon Opel Rekord! It was old in 1969. Hard to keep running.
