paulmanta Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Barring natural disasters or anything else nasty and beyond my control I should be picking the car up at the weekend. I have managed to find the last hundred quid i needed and intend to install this car in the heated garage and clean it/love it etc, then I want to drive it to local shows and Billing 2007. not likely to sleep much tonight, too excited. Must say that Lee (delmastiff) is a top bloke who gave me a fair chance to buy the car once I said I wanted it and was finding the money.

paulmanta Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Chrisb : The wheels and steering wheel, How much do you want for them, I am likely to put the car back to as found condition. -----empty spaces, what are we living for ?----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Guys I am a bit gutted that I am having to sell, but sell I am. Thanks for the kind words from Chris and Paul I like to think that I am a decent bloke to deal with and I can say that you two guys certainly are [] I am pleased that Paul is taking 'Jade' on and that she will get a well deserved trip out to Billing next year. I'll come over and say hello to her [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmanta Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 "Jade" hmmm. That name will stick, I can see my wife calling the car that, she has pet names for most of them and that is appropriate. *really looking forward to the weekend now, nice long drive home* -----empty spaces, what are we living for ?----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Paul you will need a transporter to get all the mantas to billing, you could nearly have your own show.

paulmanta Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I have a plan involving a lorry and car transporter trailer, should be able to get all of them up then, plus gives me a sleeper pod to kip in. -----empty spaces, what are we living for ?----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Paul. Where are you based? I am sure we can sort something out with the wheels and steering wheel, it would be nice to put them back on the car. E-mail me privately and i will return mail with some pics on the rostyles. chrisb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmanta Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 I am down in Cornwall, 8 miles from Lands end !! I like the wheels that are on the car to be honest but it would be nice to have the originals to go on for shows etc, I have no idea what the standard Ascona steering wheel even looks like !! my e-mail is paulmanta "at" googlemail.com I would mail you through the site but that seems to be broken at the moment. -----empty spaces, what are we living for ?----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 I fink u shud slam it on 19s m8.... Then stik a valva in it, innit.... I'll stick to plumbing.[:I] If only I'd had a. A grand. b. The room. But I haven't, so I'll simply have to drool next year at Billing. You'll be wanting a towbar for it for your trailer tent though Paul. You'll never get a mattress in the back of that![] Cheers, Joe. Please log in to the Forum from the home page folks. It helps to keep the site at the top of Google.
