dvdman69 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Brought this beautiful A series in 1982 as a teenage run-around but she captured my heart, been keeping her going ever since, gone through several costume changes but settled several years ago for the way she is now. Here she is from 2003, she hasn't changed much but will take some more picts and post them. then start with the things shes gone through up to now.

monzta Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Oh she is beautifull Looking really good. What is it a 1,6 ? 1,9 ? If i remember correct that dark yellow colour is an original Manta A colour isn´t it? Also great detail on the hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvdman69 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Its original colour, Ocre, originally a 1.6 auto then 19, 4 speed manual then in 1988 had the engine played with and cut out to quite an oversize, fitted a 5 speed Getrag about 5 years ago. The detailing was something I toyed with one day years ago and its stuck, will take some picts of the tale end, there's some nice work done on there too.
