Hey Manta fans.Greetings from ESTONIA.

Got this Manta about few months back.Big works has done with bodywork and painting.In back there is a Senator A axle with discs,the bolt pattern is 5x120.The engine is from the Omega 3000(Carlton gsi?).The box is from the Senator A again 5speed manual Getrag.Why I started this topic is because I am from Estonia and we dont have much Mantas in here left and I bought this car as a half way project and I need alot of info and help from you guys.

Hi and welcome. I really like your car, the colour scheme is just right and the wheels look cool. I used to run the same engine in my A Series manta a few year's ago. There are loads of people on here who will be more than willing to help you solve any manta problems you may encounter. :D

It may be urban legend, but I seem to remember reading about how someone may have used possibly a vw golf seal. At least I think it was a golf. Sounds plausible at least.

A scrapyard scavenge could be on the cards !!

I've heard the Golf seal fits too. Car looks great, any suspension mode planned? Would look even better if it was lower ;)

setting aside the wheel width issues, the combination of black roof and bonnet, red car and black/dark centred silver rimmed wheels is absolutely terrific!!! you've got to finnish the manta in those colours.
