m1lesdav1s Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Now found a good home - thanks for all the interest. Looking for a good home... Manta 400 replica based on 1978 Series B Manta Coupe (single slot nose). Full 400 body kit, quad lights, fiberglass; bonnet, front wings, valance, single piece boot lid, and rear arches. Originally built with full 400 spec suspension, including 3 Piece prop shaft, LSD, long travel rear arms, 5 stud hubs, revolution 3 piece split rim alloys, and 5 speed box. Shell is seam welded and reinforced for race use, however Needs lots of TLC (welding) in the usual manta places chassis legs, and floor pan, etc. WIll need new doors. Non running 1.8 CIH carb engine, put in just to move the car around. (Missing water pump - borrowed onto another manta) No MOT, and will need a trailer to take it away. Great project car I could not get started on (had it for nearly 20yrs now), and I now don't have the space so time to find it a home with someone who can do it justice. Probably worth more broken than the £800 OIRO I am asking. Will post some pictures later this week. (PS: Located near Twickenham, TW4) Edited March 3, 2010 by m1lesdav1s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
