A total of 329.864 cars were assembled. Regular as well as customized vehicles in small series were made like drawing vehicles for the Swiss Army: An open 6-seater Chevrolet Platform combined with an Opel 2.5L I-6 Cylinder; after WWII those "Swiss" cars were also offered to the public as limousines. As well GM produced luxury upgraded vehicles for the European market like the Opel Kapitän and Rekord "Ascona Edition" up to the early 70ties. The Ranger was invented by using Vauxhall structures on a Opel Rekord C body. Afterwards the plant was used as GM's European central spare parts warehouse until 1992. Most buildings still exist, they house now a Coop mall. |
