Got new front and rear pans,door jambs,battery panel,window bottom,rear lower quarters and sills on the way here plus a new bottle of gas,several rolls of wire,a large jar of Nescafe and a couple of pot noodles :D

Sounds like there is a bit more available than for Mantas.

Makes like much easier......

Looking forward to seeing this one come together

You can get everything for the A pillars, windscreen bottoms, inner sills, floor, outer sills, inner arches, outer arches etc.

Just don't take too much out as once or you will end up with a swiss cheese, over faced and never finish.

Hid all the rusty bits behind the Manta too make the Kadett look good (sorry better) :lol:

Where did you get the sticker (sign) thats in the window :thumbup what is the complete message.....Want one.

Love the Manta and colour, good luck with the Kadett. If you get it like Drew's it will be amazing.
