In Topic: Hello Form New Zealand - Manta Gsi Project

03 November 2011 - 09:03 AM

Well we are now here, been here for 4 weeks, containers arrived on Tuesday, house is full of 400+ boxes of stuff and not an Opel manta in sight, do have my Opel GT though, had a drama getting it out of the container though as the steering lock/key wouldn't budge so had to strip the column down in the container in the dark just to push her out to be inspected.
She now sits in a friends workshop waiting for me to bring her home, sort that out and get her certified, what a palaver.
Got the wife's BMW today and had to fit new front discs and a Tyre to keep the certifier happy as well, so didn't quite expect to get the kit out so soon but hey ho!!

Just need someone to give me a construction management job now and we can move forward again.

did a test fit of the brake bias pedal box, its tight but will be very tidy. fits high under the dash so no worries about it being too close to the drivers legs

Well, 3 weeks now until they come and pack us up for our move to NZ,
We leave on the 12th Sept and arrive Auckland 6th Oct.

I am bringing my GT this time and the rally car will follow next year around June time,

Marginally terrified at the moment as Wife keeps clearing the house and my stuff keeps disappearing, done 28 boxes in my workshop for just my tools and equipment, now told I may have to leave some of it here until next year!

Got the Statement of Compliance for the wife's BMW convertible so that will going in with my GT

In Topic: '83 Gte Coupe - Boot Carpet Or Floor?

My Manta rebuild is nearing completion.........see..........http://forums.mantaclub.org/topic/25413-my-gte-coupe-barn-find/

When I bought it, the boot had no carpet or lining......not even sure what is mean to be in the boot?? All I have is the compressed cardboard panel that sits in front of the tank.

My question is : does anyone sell or have boot carpets or whatever should be in the boot?

If anyone has a picture of how a finished Manta Coupe boot should look it would be appreciated!

Cheers all, GMC


Hi,
Give me your email address and I will send a picture of one insitu.
Somewhere I have a brand new carpet from Germany which was for another project but now surplus

As new, untouched. I recently bought this as a set (left and right) but i only require the left hand item. I'll sell it for half what i paid for the set, thats £20 including delivery.
