Here are some pics of the Opel Manta I bought as a rolling shell which was fitted with a 3 ltr 24v Senator engine,I was going to put it into the projects page but couldn't find it so the next best page I thought was here.
Here is what it looked like when I first bought it
Typical Manta roof,It was severely corroded around the sunroof so the previous owner decided to cut the rust out and put a panoramic sunroof in
the previous owner was going to paint the car red so he had already done the engine bay
A short video of what it sounds like
I then decided I was wanting to put a quad spotlight pod onto the car which had to be moulded into the original front panel
All the panels then painted off the car
Refitted to make sure everything matched up
Then the work really began,first we stripped the front end off then I decided it would be better to paint it white so my next job was to remove the engine and box and all the front suspension and start again under the bonnet.
Under the bonnet was then done in Polar white but I thought it looked to yellow so yet again another colour change to brilliant white
