Opel Manta GTE

Vehicle Reg No: E103KDG
Year: 1988

I have owned the car since 1991 and it has been restored by me twice originally in 1992 and was a lot easier both condition and parts availability and again 2015.
All work done by myself apart from spraying of bodywork.
I stripped it down to a bare shell and media blasted the underside,all suspention and running gear. Then I replaced both front chassis rails with original GM parts also replaced rear parts of sills and various other small welding repairs.
I painted the underside and all components with 2K epoxy primer then 2K solid colour with some areas treated to 3m stonechip.
Engine bay items I cleaned and painted in 2K satin black with aluminium parts soda blasted and painted 2K laquer.
I have tried to give it a standard/original type look that can be cleaned.
