It’s not far off ..., it’s E430 TFD 👍🏻

And bumpers, steering column and key, twin light bezel’s 😂 looking forward to seeing the build..! Speak to you on Messenger later pal 👍🏻 Lee

Happy the car went to. Andy, who I know will make it into a lovely thing 👍🏻 As said I was Gunna do a deal with the white track car then changed my mind every other day as Andy knows 😂 Only got rid because I’m knocking my garage down and while the coupe was in there I’d never start the 4 car garage I’m building 👍🏻 As I told Andy if the white one is around and for sale in the new year I’ll have it. I just didn’t want my shell outside in the wet,damp winter months... ive just renewed my membership so as Arnie said..... I’ll be back ....! Lee

Hmmm I’m liking the 6 speed box and adapter plate setup.... think I might have a bit of that for my Saab engine ... well done Jess ill have to get some details off you mate. If you get chance will you send me a message with what you are using? cheers Lee

Thanks Jess ive had contact with Gerald now cheers👍🏻

Good luck with the project...👍🏻 i like yourself have a Starmist black exclusive coupe and will be interested to see how your car comes out after the dipping, this is something I've considered.. im also using a Saab B204 and prob an omega box. im only the other side of the bridge in North Lincs and the non sunroof roof on eBay is mine 👍🏻 lee

Looks a good buy that Mick....., im going LS V8👍🏻 Lee

Hi stu cant you see the link I put up ? cheers Lee

Worth buying for the engine ?

Unfortunately no logbook id with the Jag Engined manta....

No way I'd have saved that shell.... oh well the hunt continues. thanks anyway Philip

Has this car gone ? thanks lee

I don't think anyone minds paying top dollar if the car is a top car as such, but when people are wanting thousands for cars that are needing part to full resto's it's a joke. But then I suppose it's enthusiast vs Dealer... I'd like to think most people who buy a project are in it for the love of the car and not just a money making exercise...! lee

Hi Terry Dont go out your way mate but if its possible that would be great. I'm in a little village between the Humber bridge and Brigg in North Lincs. Travelling is not a prob for the right car. appreciate you thinking of me pal cheers Lee

Your teasing me Philip..lol im here to save one if you need the space, not fussed how stripped they are as I'm doing a complete strip down,fix and build back up into a 400 rep. lee

Hi Terry its my 2nd attempt at rescuing a manta, I bought one off a member on here around 2005. It was a Gte exclusive coupe in electric blue. Anyway Kids still at home and working away I never got to start my 400 Rep I've wanted since the 80's. Now retired at 45 ,no kids at home and lotsa time I'm gunna do it now👍🏻. I've read your project thread and seems ideal for what I would want to start with. Not an easy decision for you mate, but thanks for first dibs if you do have to get shut. im gunna sign up..! cheers lee

Ooooh just searched and it's a coupe..... if you do have to get shut please gimme a shout Terry, I can't find owt anywhere at the moment. Even got a pal searching in Europe as he works out their all the time. Have you any pics, I can't see the ones you posted as I'm not a full member. cheers lee

Damn, if that was a coupe I'd be all over it, excellent start for someone!

Hi all joined ther forum years ago when I had 2 manta b coupes. Now kids have left I'm wanting to get back in the saddle with another coupe. Im after a shell rolling or not as I'm fancying a 400 rep. Plenty of time and space as I've retired at 40👍🏻. If anyone knows of anything please gimme a shout. Cheers Lee
