Finally finished the paint work and the rear light conversion, next up was the interior and exhaust system
Hotwire on the seat piping to finish of the seats realy brings the car to life at night.
Picture above taken from feature in Total Vauxhall magazine 1st edition
I got the seats & door panels covered with electro luminescent neon piping & took the car to billing in 2001 for the Opel manta show The car was still not running as a lot of cosmetics to finish but just had to get it out there as it had been so long in coming. Well glad I did make the effort in taking it as it went down well even winning a trophy not bad for an unfinished project. Went on to win another in 2001 for best unfinished project at the N.S.V.A. show too.
Well all was great but I wasn't happy with the finish on the paint and thought it needed a professionals touch so end of 2001 she went back in to paint shop. For a new idea on paint theme
