Monaco Blue Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Always liked a silver GT/E. How many Manta's do you have hidden away in there!! ....about 4 by my reckoning. 2 Quote

That's a right little Aladdin's cave isn't it? - plenty of treasure hidden away in there. Also agree that Silver always suited the Coupe body shape. 1 Quote

I always use a rubber mallet to gently tap the rubbers down as I go and into the corners that should help 🙂 Car looks great 🙂 1 Quote

Silver was popular enough up until around 85/86 when additional metallic colours were introduced. I think silver itself was dropped for the 87MY cars. Quote
Danny D114BCW Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Silver was dropped when the Exclusives were available as Astro Silver wasn't an exclusive color. 1 Quote
