Opel Manta A
series Deluxe by
Mark Kinnon
Overview
This was the most basic model available and was usually
equiped with a 1780cc engine and manual transmission.
As the Manta is the type of car suitable for modification
the 1780cc engine is often replaced by a 1900cc or 2000cc
example.
Coloured vinyl interiors were available as an optional
extra and although rare, examples exist; with these
vehicles the headlining is still coloured white.
