The New Opel Manta Project

What a sad story

Heres a few pictures I took of the car today, it was hoped that the car would be a quick one to sort out but it will be a long haul so the work can wait till next winter :(

Drivers side in boot rusted inside and hole in the panel below outside

boot lid all rusted inside

Spare tyre well rusted

just in front of the rear arch inside needs cut out also the same on the other side. Plus behind the rear arch both sides on the inside need cut out

Inner wing on passenger side has hole, but the saving point is the front valance is in good shape apart from one bubbly bit behind the front bumper

This chassis leg is knackered need cut of and replaced , not looking forward to this one

Car underneath is full of shutz and when its scrapped of the car is rusty, goingto be a nightmare to get this lady stripped .

Even the crossmember has been covered with shutz :(

More NASTY shutz

Wish me luck and post the valium :(
