In the
4st
shelf , you can watch all Siku models of the
Opel range for the second half of the
60's . Siku choice was excellent , but only 4 new models
were made , Rekord C Coupé and 5 doors Caravan , Olympia A 2
doors and the Opel GT 1900 .
The Rekord C Coupé was made between 1967 and 1974 . The
first version has plastic head and rear lights , R1 or R2 wheels
and P3 boxes , while the 2nd version has engraved front lights
on the grille and rear lights engraved on the body , R9 wheels
and P4 , P5 and maybe P7 and P8 boxes , but I'm not sure of that
. All versions have oppening doors . Rei , in Brasil , made
authorized copies of the Rekord C Coupe and GT 1900 .
On the right my three Rekord C Coupe , in the second
plan a mint boxed first version , white , blue interior red
steering wheel . R2 wheels and P3 box . This is a perfect
example , so he is always inside the box . In the first plan on
the right , a mint unboxed 2nd version , white with blue
interior and red steering wheels . R9 wheels and as you can see
the front lights are engraved , the last on the left is one
first version but with R1 wheels ans yellow steering wheel .
The Rekord C Caravan was made between 1967 and
1969 (?) . There are two main variants V272-1 with ski set on
the roof and V272-2 with ski set and red bobsleigh . R1 and R2
wheels and P3 boxes .
My 2 Rekord C Caravans are both V272-1 . In the first
plan a mint incomplete model , missing part of the ski set ,
light blue , red interior with white steering wheel and R2
wheels . My second Rekord C Caravan a mint boxed model , also
light blue with red interior , but yellow steering wheel and R1
