As more car rags go by the wayside in favor of online reading, I subscribed to Hemmings Motor News a few years back
They recently did an article about 12 German cars, some of which I had never heard of before, but 2 of which I did (or still do) own
So I sent in a letter to the editor along with a pic, and got published
You've probably seen this photo before, from PSF 2021, but it felt good to get into another publication, besides the Roundel
The green shark makes it into Hemmings Motor News!

Very Nice!
Cool to read you also drove several Opel's, a brand which was very big in the past in Europe.
I have owned quite some Opel's as well in the past. Loved them.

Re: The green shark makes it into Hemmings Motor News!
Thanks for the kind words gents
Yes Paul, the Opel GT was a cool car in its day
Driving to High School back in the 70's it was a hit, other than the occasional snide remark, "What, you couldn't afford a Corvette?"
Or, "What happened to it, looks like you shrunk it in the dryer"

That's pretty cool Bobbo!
I've not picked up Hemmings in a long time. I used to study it when I was a kid.
But now, I can get lost for hours on the internet.
