mantasrme Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Just popped up on eBay an early Manta B with plastic bumpers, started life as a hatch but was changed into a convertible in the 80's. Its the only Hatch convertible i have ever seen and has been done nicely. I've seen the car in the flesh and the paint is excellent, interiour is mint. Engine needs changing as after over 10 years of not running whilst trying to unseize it a piston ring was broken. The engine has been converted to a GT/e injection system. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/292708476072 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monaco Blue Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 An interesting find. Certainly something different. Could well be unique. It looks better with the roof down, but not as clean looking as a Centaur imo which looked right. The B pillars look a bit strange. Will be interesting to see what it sells for.

Irmscher Man Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 What an unusual conversion. Looks like an interesting project for someone with unusual taste! Each to their own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
