Manta CC GT/E

More club cars?

Owner: Tony Richardson

Anne Norris originally owned the car and sold it on two years ago to Chris Bert who then sold it to me a year ago. This is the first year I've entered anything into the concourse, I was really surprised at winning, it was marvellous!
I've tried to keep the car standard but I'd wanted to give it a bit of an individuality of its own. I've changed a few items such as replacing the sliding callipers for early B series twin pot callipers. It has certainly improved the braking and feels a lot sharper; eventually I would like to add drilled and grooved discs just to improve it a bit more.
I've also added a leather exclusive steering wheel, and twin headlight conversion. Although Ann told me off for that but I do like the look of the twin headlights. There are one or two other things I would like to add such as a stainless steel exhaust system. But that's something for the future.

I tend to only use it on sunny dry days so it doesn't get used much in the winter months and unfortunately it has to sit outside on the drive as its too wide for our garage.

The only problem I've had with the car is the voltage regulator, and I've had to change that on every manta I've owned.

Would you like to see more club cars?
