Mike. Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Went to the Ashvale in Aberdeen for fish & chips, excellent by the way, went to pay and spotted this rather large photo on the wall and couldn’t help but notice the car parked outside the Capitol in Aberdeen, is this a cavalier coupe or early Manta B? it made me smile 👍 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierdave Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I reckon it's a Manta B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

®evo03 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Did the manta not have over riders on bumpers? Can't see any? Cavaliers did not, but grainy pic...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My original SRB 1978 did not. Does look like the number plate is in right spot for Manta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 hard to tell from the pic realy. looks like number plate is below bumper ? and deep sill trims would make it a cav .wheels could be done black by owner ? cant realy zoom in enough to tell ? overriders wernt std anyway .not even on a gls cav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryD89 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 That’s a Chrysler Alpine behind. No idea on the car in front though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
