nozzer Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Hello everybody, I am new to the group having recently purchased a 1974 manta in need of a full refurbishment. I have previously owned a 1978 kadett 12S, 1979 ascona 16S and a 1979 chevette, (along with a landrover, a MR2 and a load of modern rubbish). Seeing as the manta is a bit of a shed and I will be needing all manner of spares, I look forward to many hours of trawling through the parts for sale adds and tech help section .

Anyway, Hello and welcome. I live on the Marina at the moment but will be moving to the bright lights of Horden once i sell this house. My family used to run the Brus Arms in the 80's so i have a working knowledge of the West View area. And thanks for the welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
