Opel – other models: collective page of the Opel commercial brand with the post-war Blitz trucks, four- to six-cylinder engines, 1.49 to 3.55 t kerb weight
This page gathers Opel commercial vehicles that the register could not assign to a named range. The core is formed by the "Blitz" trucks with which Opel, as part of General Motors, supplied the German light and medium truck class from the 1930s into the 1970s; type codes such as "1,75 T", "3,5 T" or the three-digit post-war types with the suffix "-H" (hydraulic brakes) and "-330"/"-375" (wheelbase in centimetres) date from this period. After the truck division was sold to Daimler-Benz in 1974, independent Opel truck production ended.

The register lists 90 versions here with four- to six-cylinder engines, kerb weights from 1,490 to 3,553 kg and gross vehicle weights from 2,910 to 6,300 kg; widths of 1,660 to 2,400 mm and lengths of 5,250 to 6,710 mm are also recorded for part of the models.
Alongside the Mercedes-Benz L range, the Blitz was one of the defining West German trucks of the reconstruction era, common in trade, commerce, fire brigades and the Bundeswehr alike – today sought mainly as a restoration-worthy classic.
On these used vehicles, what counts above all is rust on the cab, frame and load bed, the condition of brakes and steering, the originality of engine and fittings, and, on fire-brigade or military vehicles, the completeness of the special bodywork; spare parts are available almost exclusively through classic-vehicle specialists and reproduction parts.
