The Opel Kadett is a small family car produced by the German automaker Opel between 1937 and 1940, then from 1962 to 1992.
Kadett C (1973--1979)
Production 1973--1979
Engine(s) 1.2 1.9 2.0
The Kadett C appeared in 1973, and was Opel's version of GM's 'T-Car', also built in Japan by Isuzu and sold as the Isuzu Gemini in Asian markets and Australia and many other names. In South Korea, Daewoo Motors built a version known as the Daewoo Maepsy. The Kadett C formed the basis of the British Vauxhall Chevette, which had a restyled front end, and used a 1256 cc OHV (over head valve) Vauxhall engine rather than the 1196 cc OHV Opel engine. It was notable for the inclusion of a hatchback version named City-Kadett, based on the UK Vauxhall Chevette hatchback, which was a first for Opel. Although Kadett C production ended in 1979, the Chevette was produced until January 1984. Interestingly, the Vauxhall Chevette was imported to Germany starting in 1979 to satisfy the needs of the rear wheel drive traditionalists and was quite a success for a year or two.
The Kadett C today is a cult car in Germany, especially in fastback Coupe form. The most sought after versions of the Kadett C Coupe are the Rallye and GT/E models. These models were built first with the Bosch fuel injected 1897 cc CIH (cam in head) Opel engine and followed by the updated 1998 cc CIH engine. Right hand drive (UK) versions of these sports models are now rarely seen.
A very rare version was the Aero-Kadett, an open-top Kadett with targa roll bar, detachable roof insert and a separate convertible top aft of the roll bar (like the contemporary Lancia Beta Spider (Lancia Zagato in the US). This car was built in very limited numbers by Karosserie Baur in Stuttgart.
The Kadett C reached America as the Buick--Opel. In reality, however, this was an Isuzu Gemini; an updated version of this car was marketed in the USA as the Isuzu I-Mark in the early Eighties.
In Brazil, the Kadett C was released six months before its European release as Chevrolet Chevette, and it was available with a choice of three gasoline engines, a 1.4 L, a 1.6 L and a 1.0 L (available only for 1992 and 1993 model year) and the 1.4 L and 1.6 L were also available on ethanol. This Chevette went through several redesigns - first a front and rear fascia similar to the Opel version, then a look similar to the British/American Chevette, and finally a design reminiscent of the updated American version. It was available in several different bodies: Hatchback (1979-1987), Station Wagon (called Chevrolet Marajó, 1980-1989), Pickup (Chevy 500, 1984-1995) and Sedan (1973-1993). The Chevette sold over 1.6 million units in Brazil, being replaced by the Chevrolet Corsa. (Less)
My Ride thru Denver in the Captain of Pleasure's Fiat Is there anything funnier than a Fat Man in a Little Car? How about TWO? On September 20th 1988 I (More) Is there anything funnier than a Fat Man in a Little Car? How about TWO? On September 20th 1988 I was honored to be driven all around the Denver/Boulder Metro area in Bob Johnsen's new toy, his 1979 Fiat convertable.
The Late Robert C. Johnsen sr. (aka the "Captain of Pleasure") was an old friend of my family and I got to know him quite well in the last decade of his life.
At 6 foot 3, and often tipping the scale at 450 lbs, he was a man of enormous appitites, and so he died far too young in 1995.
Funny as inferno comedia, he was always quick with a quip. A transplant from Brooklyn New York, the good Cap'n was always a party waiting to happen.
On this day, "Tiny" took me all over Denver, 'Colorada', starting from his home in Northglenn, where we see his sharp, handsome son, 'Prince Louie' (Lewis Johnsen) then 18 years old and about to start his first day at the new mega-store, Wal-Mart.
Check out Louie's Porsche video:

--continuing south on the Valley Highway, I-25 into Downtown Denver via 17th st, out east Colfax avenue, by East High school and on to the Stock show yards and under the I-70 overpass viaduct.
We also see El Capitan schmoozing with some of his fans on the Pearl street Mall in Boulder. The famous Boulder Mall is where all the crazies hang out, especially at night.
It's no different now, 20 years later.
Here is one of the Captain's more auspicious moments captured on video, a little film I made of him in '87 called "Drab Days in Suburbia"

I miss the big lug. This is my video tribute to a man that lived large before it was chic. A toast to you, oh Captain, my Captain!
