Euro mag: Retro Car: Mantas!

At Barnes and Noble I saw a copy of the english (I think) magazine called Retro Car. It's basically for 60's-80's cars. It is not 'originality' fixated and many have hotrodded or modified cars in it. In fact, they seem to like to compare either an original or period modified car with a current tech modified car.

Anyway, as of now, the current issue is supposed to have four Mantas. Two B's, and two A's. Unfortunately, that store did not have the Manta issue yet, so I can't report on the article.
