hello to you all, im colin from thornton cleveleys near blackpool and been into mantas most of my life, i was in the manta owners club about 10 years ago but like everything, life tends to take over hobbies and pleasures so have been out of the manta scene for a decade, luckily i kept my 3 mantas stored away and have only recently dug them out, ive an exclusive that im going to restore to show condition, ive a GTE hatch that i restored in 1994 and ive a berlinetta auto that is totally original and untouched but is starting to show its age. I did used to live round the corner from Trevor Lewis and also worked at TVR with him but lost contact a few years ago, if your still into the manta scene trev give us a nod, anyway like i said..... a big hello :thumbup
