My name is Peter Choong and I'm from Malaysia.

I have a 1971 Opel Manta A which I tracked down to a farmer in a small town back in 1994.

Paid him RM2000 (or US$550) and had it towed home for restoration.
 

It was rusty gray and the engine was about to call it quits anytime.

The car would not be back on the roads until one and a half years later. It's been with me ever since and I use it only during the weekends when it takes me and my mountain bike to the trailheads.

From the pictures attached, you'll see that I have modified the rear lights to have them sit flush with the surface, a bit like some of those Ferraris.

I also took off the rear bumper. Thought the car looked a lot better without it. You will also see pictures of the same car in the workshop undergoing restoration
