JohnClayton Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Mine are rotten! I'm based in Bicester, OXON /Reading (BERKS) but I can collect from anywhere in UK (using a courier if necessary). 07801 652262
stradacab Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Try Eckhard in the spare parts suppliers section Inner and outers available. More pics at Project J in the Your project section
JohnClayton Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Thanks! I've googled 'Eckhard' and found some useful threads on the above topic: Front Chassis Repair Parts http://forums.mantaclub.org/topic/25514-front-chassis-repair-parts/ Swan Neck Mot Repair http://forums.mantaclub.org/topic/34080-swan-neck-mot-repair/ Chassis Rails/legs Ascona Manta A B http://forums.mantaclub.org/topic/31355-chassis-railslegs-ascona-manta-a-b/ However, Eckhard's chassis legs will (as far as I can see) be 925 Euros for both including delivery (about £850) which is huge money for what they are, in my opinion. Here are Dr Manta's equivalents: http://www.s442721238.e-shop.info/shop/category_1785e4fe917e7273d76faa0b8e0ab6ef/Ascona_Manta-B.html?sessid=XD7VxQy4uURM66VIF150oFLFZowARewhz7mbLg71AEUNUArCbmkRdz1KuUIy7UKN&shop_param=cid%3D%26 Edited January 21, 2014 by JohnClayton
mantaray Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Look on German ebay. This is a good supplier I use, quick delivery and cheaper than Dr manta. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Opel-Tuning-Leidinger/_i.html?_nkw=manta&submit=Search&_sid=112131255
JohnClayton Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 Good call -£45 each side is more like it! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ascona-B-Manta-B-Langstrager-Rahmen-Rep-Satz-links-/221294635309?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item338630292d
stradacab Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 I paid 275 for the inners including shipping and about 250 for the outers including shipping. I should have ordered the all together but I thought I could get away with the outers only ( which you can't) Reckon the order combined and ship would have been about 425 all in. Not cheap, but if you deducted the cost of the 4 repair sections for both sides and remember you don't get inners I still reckon it's the best way to go if the legs are really bad ( and mine were really bad!!) 1
taylorblue5 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I love finding new suppliers. That German ebay supplier will be really useful for people.
MB15 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 As Scott says , Looks a really useful ebay page Think i'l have a proper look thru the now
