Ok, Andrew has given me permission to post these picks. I put them in "General" because they are only pics and he said he WILL be joining the forum soon. It was stated that this car is a factory built piece, but does have a few Fiero parts on it. Either way it's a sweet ride and I think it deserves recognition. When he sent the pics to me he was going to pick up an '88 t-top, so look for him to post pics later of the build of his cars.

I recognized that car right a way. I always wanted one of those and pehapse someday .....

Anyway, the Manta GT was the killer fast of the two exotic "kits" produced but it looks like he has a V8 in this one so it should be pretty good. The GT lade a longitudinal setup. At a show about 4 years ago, a guy came up to me to ask about my setup in the race car and I went over to see what he and it was a Manta GT. I was floored. He said he bought it in '81 and built it as a kit. Very cool. I have have always liked the look of the Montage the best. Great looking car.

HI all

MMMMMMM, ..... Have always loved the Mclaren M6! Looks to be in fantastic shape too, great car!! Is this the one getting the 3800 SC? Or is it going in the 88 t-top? It would be great to have Andrew here, if that is the difinitive proof of how he takes care of his toys, then I can't wait to see a build thread by him!!

LMAO @ the castle coyote!! Usta faithfully watch that show, and infact that was the first time I was told that kitcars existed..... Still love that car aswell..... I always liked how people following the coyote usta call it the "red sportscar".....

It doesn't look like a Fiero cradle, and the engine is carb'd with what looks like the Holley 8007.

Cool car.
