Recommended Posts

As the title says i'm breaking a manta hatch, started life as a 1.8 but was converted to a cih (so none of those bits available :P )

I've just started striping it so will add to this list as i go along and check parts,

If there's anything specific your after just ask and i'll check it for you

Rear seats Black/charcol £5 Free to collect (Gone) SOLD

Injection wiring loom £2

Flywheel £3

Steering column complete with switches and steering wheel (no ign switch) £10

Doors inc glass and winder mech (no locks) good condition slight rust forming along lower inner lip £30 each (pics to follow)

Fuse box and complete wiring loom £10

Large square washer bottle and bracket £3 SOLD

Small/medium items can be posted large or fragile items collection only (like glass)

All items are in Harrogate, N-yorkshire

The reason i'm not repairing it is that a couple of years ago the owner put it back on the road from a long time stored.

He had a lot of welding done at a local garage. However they didn't chop 1 single bit of rot out :angry:

They just patched over all the rusty areas then filled over the repairs, no rust treatment either.

So 2 years later the rust has broken through the thin metal they used for the patches, i've checked it over and ripped off a couple of the patches and its nasty

To repair it now it needs welding to both rear sills (inner/middle and outer) both rear arches, lower rear corners, lower back panel, A-pillars, inner wing tops, jacking points, swan necks, chassis rails, washer bottle tray, battery tray, scuttle panel repair

Oh its also rusting around the sunroof, then it would need fully painting and rebuilding.

At the end of all that its a 1.8 hatch with a 2.0 Cih engine fitted so wouldn't be worth much

However broken it can help many other manta's stay on the road so a fitting end rather than just getting crushed

Hi

Are the calipers ATE or Delco?

Not sure will check

What year is it and is the sunroof seal any good?

Its a D reg and the sunroof seal doesn't look that good

Pretty sure it was leaking which is why the roof i so rusty

Hi

Can't remember how to tell them apart (been a long time since i had standard calipers on one of my mantas)

They are the standard manta calipers with sliding pistons (or should that be seizing)

Don't have a manufacturers stamp on but say made in france and look to have been re-con'd with new seals

I'll get a pic tomorrow.

ATE calipers have one piece + shaped spring retainer, Delco calipers have two long spring retainers if that helps you to identify them.

I know they are heavy, but any idea of Post and packing cost please?

Here's a quick pic from my phone of the caliper
