Chevrolet Opala Diplomata year 1988 saved over 30 years

This incredible Chevrolet Opala Diplomata 1988 is still in 0km condition. It was stored in the same garage for approximately 31 years.

Found by the great hunter of vintage and rare cars, Julio Raridades. This rarity leaves anyone who likes a car, jaw dropping.

We're talking about a 1988 Diplomat Opal with low mileage.

So this car belonged to a lawyer, DR. Silveira. Unfortunately he died in 2019, leaving some cars, including this Opal that had since 0 km.

 A little bit of the history of this Diplomat Opal

In 1988 Chevrolet had just launched the new Opal line. So the DR. Silveira went to the dealership to see the changes.

Finally, he ended up being enchanted with the new car, and bought a copy. He bought a Chevrolet Opala Diplomata 4.1/S gasoline, with manual transmission, in the new Atlantis Metallic Blue color.

This was the first 0km vehicle that DR. Silveira managed to buy in his life, hence his passion for the car.

In the beginning, the Diplomat was only used to go to the office or serve clients in some audiences. But the intention when buying was to go to Campos do Jordão with the family.

After a few years, Dr, Silveira bought more vehicles, but kept the Opala as a trophy of his work and success.

Julio Raridades was invited by the Dr's son to see the car. Julio found the machine full of dust, a dream for any collector of rare and vintage cars.

As soon as he entered, he saw that he had only 56,000 km on it, a well maintained car with low mileage. It is definitely the car that every collector wanted to find.

One more very important detail is that the 1988 Opala was the last model with the 250-S engine option, the strongest engine in the Opals.

With some information, Chevrolet has produced few cars in this configuration. And the 4-door model had even lower production, said the incredible rarity hunter Julio.

So this model is an authentic 250-S. Which must be undergoing some revisions by Julio, to be presented as a final result.
