Selling: 1973 Opel Manta Portland, Oregon

Gearjamer · 07-06-2007

I've got two straight Opel Mantas. One complete 1973 nice body, so so interior with very nice dash and clear title from Washinton. One rolling chassis 1974 VERY straight body no title. The 1974 has the interior pulled out of it but that allowed me to look at the body inside and out. It's very straight NO bondo. I have too many projects and need to clear some out. I'm testing the water for local intrest before I list on Ebay.

How much for each? Is the silver manta in the pictures te 73?

Gearjamer · 07-06-2007

If someone wanted both I would let them go for 1000.00. I am looking for 1000.00 obo for the Silver '73. The '74 is a Ralley and has no drive train and the interior is pulled out. It is orange and the body is VERY straight. Perfect for a track car. I also do not have a title for the orange '74 so I only paid 100 for it. That's all it's realy worth to me. I would really like to make it a track car myself but I have a 1962 T'bird convertable (Current project) and a 1985 Mustang GT convertable that suck up enough money.

Any pictures of the other car?

Gearjamer · 07-07-2007

Not Yet. I can get some pics of the 74 this weekend. Let me know what you want to see and I'll take them and post. The 74 has no title. But would make a bitchn' track car. I can't believe how straight the body is. Since the drive train is gone and the interior is pulled out I've been able to really check for damage and rust. It's really clean inside and out. The guy I got it from knew the family that was the original owners. The son of the family pulled the drive train for a GT and the body ended up over at the friends property. He said if I REALLY wanted the title he could ask but the storie is the owning family lost it and didn't care to put the effort out to find it. Unless of course I wanted to throw some money there way. I got it for 100.00 told the wife it was a "parts" car and was thinking "track" car. A sweet deal on a 1962 convertable Thunderbird changed my direction. Wife likes the T'bird not the Manta, might have something to do with the change of heart
