Yes, this is the same Manta that came out with us the Altamont Cruisers car show in Livermore, CA to Sundays ago.

This is funny, because another Opeler that attended the same car show (Livermore, CA), had his GT featured in an article in June this year:

1971 Opel GT purchased by teen with department store earnings (phillyBurbs.com) | Custom Rides

Thats my baby! I read Jalopnik.com all of the time and live in Alameda, I figured it was only a matter of time before they finally tracked me down.

Wished I hadnt lost the little center piece of chrome on the top of his nose before the shoot though...Note to all out there, if you have a loose piece of trim, fix it before driving the Nimitz Freeway at 85 mph..
