SJ_Sathanas Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Hey guys I was a member a while ago from Manchester and have a load of pictures that may be of interest. Not sure about specific locations or dates but I'd guess about 6 years ago. America Day @ somewhere Billing, porbably a couple of years jumbled together; Another Cheshire Show A very hot Tatton Park Randoms; -Don't think I took this. Probably hosted for someone. -A wet Saturday at Tatton. I think we had 3 cars on the stand that day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANTAMAN Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 'i live not far from Watford now' Your not far from the west London meet at the Coy Carp pub, Near Harefield, first tuesday evening of the month, hoasted by the venerable (he'll kill me for saying that!) Ron Daymond, you may not currently have a Manta but you wont be lynched if you go and say hello! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stradacab Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Nice pics, there is Clive's superb V8 and car of the show, think this was 07. The 400 pick up, great memories of this one. The RHD 400 UK show car I came up with for my first Billing 2006. Newports Ascona HDP with my Copper Bronze SR next to it - 2007/2008? Danny's GT/E always a regular and D134 ETC, spotless. Lots of other happy memories there and heart warming to know that many of those cars are still in cherished hands Thanks for posting!

Scribe of Lincoln Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 That's the Chief Welder's silver GT/E and my bronze B outside the toilet block at Billing. 5 years later the same car was sitting in a large pool of water in the same place, while I chucked my tent in the bin! Good trip down memory lane. Loved that ochre GT/J - wonder who's got that now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierdave Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Is the GT/J the same car that sold in September last year on ebay for £3000? http://forums.mantaclub.org/topic/32122-gorgeous-gtj-b-series-coupe-with-red-top/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Daymond, you may not currently have a Manta but you wont be lynched if you go and say hello! Just missed it then! Ian do you have a meet at this time of year ? MK isn't too far away- probably closer than the NWest meet was when I was in Manchester.

Glad the pictures are appreciated anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I hadnt sold it now, well remembered! Its in the back of the 6th photo... by the caravan and the Opel flag.. I had a picture of it back then but it's long since lost. I remembered getting a shot of the front as you seemed a little sensitive about the finish of the repair. You shouldn't have worried; that thing was a mess.
