The Opel Olympia Rekord was introduced in March 1953 as successor to the Opel Olympia, a pre-World War II design dating back to 1935. The Opel Olympia Rekord was built until 1957 in four different versions. Around 580, 000 units were produced. Styling of the 1953-54 sedans resembled scaled-down versions of the contemporary Chevrolet in the U. S. Both cars were of course, products of General Motors.
First registered in Austria in April 1955 to Baron Carl Ludwig Braun, the Opel was purchased in March 1977 by Franz Hacker, who moved to the UK in 1978 before settling in Jersey in 1993. Now unused for some years it is never the less complete and being sold for restoration with only two owners.
