Dan - there is a GTE at a breakers in the Birmingham area at the moment.

No idea if they'd help with cutting out an inner wing though.

fyi, delivery of my new toy has been delayed due to the recent bad weather :-(

But it should arrive next week :D

My bodyshop has pulled my Manta half way back to its original length but chassis rail is still twisted and they think they can't get it back to normal without an inner wing to weld in.

I'd be grateful to know when you'll be able to start breaking the car or where else I can get one.

rutthenut: You are on the list!

Any news on the axle? I now have a car that is need of a working diff and I'd rather take a whole axle and then swap them over, to put in a limited slip unit later on.

Also, you mention headlights an MOT failure. Do you have the large screw-on covers that go on the back of the headlamps?

Dan Hart, PM sent. We have jig facilities and a meaurement setup, all manta dims and a couple of front end correction frames, only issue is there is a chevy camaro stuck on the jig at the moment with no floors or chassis at all so I can't take it off!!

I have various sections of used inner wing, and various used nosecones you can cut bits out of.

we are only just down the road in Hinckley

cheers

Nat
