novaman Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Hi chaps, I've been a member before, had 2 GTE Hatches, one was an exclusive, both were great fun, always hankered after an A series though & thanks to Paul B I now own one. It needs a bit of work, so I may be posting a few questions over the coming years. The initial concept for the car is road based, I've no intention to take it on track, I also will never be selling it so I want to get it right for me. So I am looking to use the Ford small block V8 with tremec T5, Salisbury 4HA axle and jag LSD. Here she is: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
611 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 And another A series! Where are the all coming from :-) Welcome to the world of the Manta A :-) Has yours got OZ wheels on it? I have these on my A. I also have some parts links on my site if you are looking for places to get parts for the A series. www.theopelproject.com Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 Hi Andy , yes they are oz f1 but only to roll it around on, hopefully going for some split rims in time. Fairly sure this car been in a few members hands. Planning to give it a new lease of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
611 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Split rims will look nice on the A series. Good luck with the build and make sure you setup a project thread as it will be interesting to see the V8 going into the A :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
