Redrobie Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Having read the guidance for posting here I have question. If I have a complete rolling shell with trim etc that I wish to sell parts from is there a section for this as I really do not fancy listing every little part of the trim etc. Also I may not list some small part that someone desperately needs. I don't mind getting questions about what parts I still have if it helps people locate something they need but I will break the rules if I just say I have a car for spares and do not put up prices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 For example, Breaking opel manta hatchback - front seats £50 - rear bumper £20 - steering wheel £25 Any other parts required please ask Use that as a template, list a few big items and what people will need they will ask for. Don't forget to put your location and contact details on. And if it's a GTE, Jack is after a decent fuel tank. And I'm after dark grey door cards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks Sutty2006 I had thought that would work but didn't want to upset people if there was a proper way to list it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I have your hatch fuel tank, assuming it isn't leaking? Are you cutting up the body?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Hi Snowy, the shell can be cut up if anyone needs any of the solid bits. What areas do you need? As for the tank, it looks okay to me BUT several of the Breather Pipes are rusted off so it may be no use to you. Let me have an email and I will try to show what I mean when I go back to the car tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I have sent you a PM with my email address. What condition are the rear inner sills like? Above the rear jacking point? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob12345 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hi I need the rear speaker housing the two parts the parcal shelf sits on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yes I have those complete with speakers. I am not sure how strong these are for posting but I can box them up and put as much packing in as possible. If you want to collect in person that would be fine. As for price I don't really know what they are worth, I am more a coupe man, but in my other listing I asked for £25 the pair.if that is okay let me know. Bob.

newmantaowner Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 hi there, do you have any of the following items: Full set of body & door trim( the rubbers that go down the doors about half way up) Repeaters from both wings Battery clamp if you have any of the above it would be very helpful as i am struggling to find any parts for the manta. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 I should have a full set of the side rubbing strips from this F Reg car. They are wider than on the early cars so no use to me at present. I am checking the side repeaters. I am sure there are a pair fitted but I don't know if they are correct original parts as my car doesn't have them fitted. Do you have a photo of the correct ones and I will check through what else I have if these are wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Sorry for not getting back. Due to family health issues I have not had a chance to check for these items for you. I will be going in over the weekend and will let you know what I have. If you still need them then we can sort shipping etc. Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rutthenut Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Would it be possible to get the left-hand A-pillar/door-opening/hinge mount area cut out, or is it rotten through (like mine)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Hi, I can have a look when I am next up at the workshop. If you need down into the sill area that will be rotted I think but I am fairly sure the hinge mounting area and the A pillar/windscreen pillar looked okay. Not really sure how I would get it cut out though having never done it. Could give it a go if it's sound and we get some dry weather. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lower part on mine is rusty too so that wouldn't solve it all. I think I am sorted elsewhere now, or else the guy working on the car can fabricate the panelwork if needed. So don't worry about it - I haven't cut out chunks of bodywork either :-o All the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 It is a sunroof shell Denis K. New manta owner please send me an email address and I will send pics of the parts I have for you. The side trims do have marks and a little over spray but should clean up well. They would require the use of existing fixings or new ones located. The kick panel I have is the one with the service book slot fixed on it. The vinyl is in good condition as is the boar but will need re glueing on places. I have ere moved the side repeaters from the wings which are the original ones and there are no extra holes so I assume the they are correct. Made by Hella. Have a look and if these are useful we can sort a price and delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsall86 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 what seats were in it bob? Im after some recaro subframes? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 There is a pair but fairly rusty. The main tube on both is corroded, one right through. If you can repair them you can have them for £10 plus delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosmanta Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Hello mate! Do you still have the rear bumper, door cards and center console? I would appreciate photos and desired prices. Cheers!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrobie Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 I still have a rear bumper and a centre console but the door cards were totally shot. Should the centre console have a cassette holder with it? I seem to recall seeing one with that feature but don't know if it was standard on all later Mantas or just on certain specs. This one does not have a cassette holder. Where are you based? Do you want to pick up at Billing as I cannot post these due to size and weight. I am having a big clear out and bringing loads of smaller bits down to Billing and will be selling for offers when seen. If you want these make me what you reckon is a fair offer and I will keep them for you or you could sort your own courier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
