Sutty2006 Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I have had donated to me a 1987 manta berlinetta hatchback. I intend on using everything from the rear of the door, back. So everything forward of the doors will be of little use to me. There isnt much left of it really. The doors and front springs are spoken for, bonnet, wings, bumper, windscreen, dashboard, seats, headlights, engine, gearbox are all gone. BUT if anyone wants any areas cutting off, or other parts then I will get the grinder out. I will be asking for offers on any parts taken. I intend on giving EVERY LAST PENNY i make on breaking (whats left of)this Manta to the Douglas MacMillan Hospice charity. My Nan passed away in there after a short battle with cancer and its hit me like a freight train. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick-Manta Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I intend on using everything from the rear of the door, back. That'll be a trailer I assume? Nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard boyle Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hi Sorry to hear about your Gran. I am looking for some parts for my Manta and wonder whether if you can help me. I am after the fuel pressure regulator if its available. Kind regards Richard Hi Sorry to hear about your Gran. I am looking for some parts for my Manta and wonder whether if you can help me.

Rick-Manta Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Damn you rick! Was tryin me best to keep it secret hahaha. Sorry! Will it be bright red and be towed by your very nice 1.8 hatch? I'll look forward to seeing it, that white Monza and trailer that used to do the rounds at shows a few years ago looked really class so in Manta guise will be really smart. Will you be doing a project page? I think it's rather sad how hospice wards and centres aren't actually funded by our national insurance contributions, I know we're in a pickle at the moment but they never have been and it makes you wonder how mis-managed it must be, when plenty of essential cancer and terminal illness services (as well as research) is left to charitable funding?!

74009 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 (edited) Hi Sutty, What I could do with if it's still there and not perished is the rubber seal that runs along the top of the door - where the glass pops under to seal as the door's closed; is that still available please? Best regards Stuart Edited November 1, 2010 by 74009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Richard - car was an 1800 so doesn't have fuel regulator, however I'll have a look in my parts bin for you. Rick, yep you got it. Hit the nail on the head! Just got to work out how to fill the gap when its cut. Stuart - got both sides, which do you need?
