I drove by this the other day. Pretty rough. I stopped an took picture but couldn't find the owner. Left them a note but haven't hear back from them.Must be a 4-speed.
No Rallye model was offered in 1975, so gotta be a ‘74.It has the correct side stripe, wheels, and the small placard under the name 'Manta' on the fender for the Rallye. So ought to be the 3.67 rear axle. I cannot tell the year, besides 'late'...
Speaking as a tree hugger, that is going too far.BTW, I see that the Old Bay State passed a law outlawing sales of new gas powered cars after a certain year in the future. You got out of there just in time...
Yup, I was reading that recently, they are one of three states now who have passed this legislation...California, New Jersey, and Massachusetts.BTW, I see that the Old Bay State passed a law outlawing sales of new gas powered cars after a certain year in the future.

Thanks, very interested in this. Do you have a phone number for the business it’s at or a name and location of the business?I drove by this the other day. Pretty rough. I stopped an took picture but couldn't find the owner. Left them a note but haven't hear back from them. View attachment 432393
It's a 74 Rallye
I've tried several times to reach owner. There's a trailer near the cars that says Johnson Autosport. Googled it and came up with a Facebook page: Johnson Autosport
Reached out via facebook and haven't gotten a reply. Looks like owner use to race Opel's. His shop doesn't look to be active operating business anymore - his shop is roughly 30 minutes from my house. I only drive that direction a couple times a year but always look forward to seeing the Manta's. I've stopped by the shop now on several occasions...but still no luck meeting owner or getting any current contact info. Sure hope to meet him someday to share Opel stories. Wouldn't mind finding out if he's for hire....would love to take my Ascona to his shop ( fingers crossed ) for some fine tuning.
