Chassis No.: 598070849

Engine No.: 1145796

Registration: ABW 197F

Sold £22,191 | Sold

Registered new on 1st November 1973 this wonderful example was restored in Northern Ireland in 2018 and was imported back to England following the restoration. Presented in its original right hand drive guise the Manta was acquired by the vendor in July 2018 and has resided in his private collection ever since. During his tenure the Opel has been dry stored and maintained where necessary. The paintwork, engine bay and interior are all in very good order showing little sign of age and it is reported to run and drive as it should.

Currently showing 54,422 miles on the odometer this Manta A comes complete with a history file including various sundry bills, old MoT records and the current UK registration document. Very few examples are presented in this condition and as such we expect this Opel to be keenly contested at auction.
