Yampy Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Morning all. Thought I'd see after many years away what's happening in the Manta world. I used to be the owner of a Manta A Berlinetta reg WGF 300M of which I rescued from a scrap yard back in the 80's and then lovingly restored it. The last show I went to was at Billing where I won a trophy, the year I can't remember. Sadly and very regrettably I had to sell her due to a bad divorce. Moving on I'm looking forward to attending some shows which I suppose will be next year now. See you soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manta Mal Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Hi Paul, Welcome back. Yes, bad divorce for me too...... partly due to 3 Manta A's on the grass in the back garden and the garage, house and loft, full of parts! Looks like WGF 300M is still on the road, as it's shown as currently taxed and mot'd. 2016 was the last meet at Billing, so stay tuned for the new venue in 2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was a international meet I got third prize for nonstandard as the original colour should be silver with black vinyl roof. Wonder where she is now??? Thanks for the picture its brought back some happy memories 17 hours ago, Manta Mal said: I took this photo of your Manta at Billing, I guess back in the 80's..... Oh my gosh!

I look forward to that next year hopefully she'll be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
