This 1983 Bitter SC is a strange and rarely seen GT car based on Opel Senator underpinnings. One of 461 built, there were also 22 sedans and five convertibles. This one’s not currently running and has no title, but the seller sounds to be working on the latter issue. Though undoubtedly a little bit scruffy, the car does look complete, and its oh-so 80’s ruched leather interior seems to have held up pretty nicely, too. Find it here on Craigslist in Litchfield, Connecticut for $4k OBO.

The description is quite short, with the seller essentially summing things up by saying that the car needs work. Photos are also limited, with only the driver’s side shown in profile, but the car’s interesting 365 GT4 2+2 inspired styling is in plain view. From what can be seen, the car doesn’t look too worse for wear, displaying a straight body and seemingly complete trim. Paint appears to be somewhat tired, but everything else including the correct wheels, glass and taillight units remain.

Inside, things could definitely stand to be cleaned, but leather looks like it would respond well to a deep moisturizing treatment and the dash doesn’t appear to be damaged, either. Ditto the door panels, at least what can be seen of them. One area of concern is the door jamb, which may or may not be showing some rust.

No photos of the engine are provided, but power should come from either a 3.0 or 3.9 liter Opel Cam in Head (CIH) inline-six mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission. Styling is subjective of course, but it’s good to bear in mind that these cars were known for good handling and high speed stability coupled with reliable, mass produced underpinnings and a quiet, refined cabin. Most parts should still be relatively easy to source from Europe, and as long as corrosion isn’t too heavy, this one should be worth saving.
