An Opel Manta GT/E
I know it's not a 300 (or even a Volvo), but I think it's sooooooo cool that I had to share it with you
Nice, can't call traitor now
I think that I have manta ecu and actually whole fuel injection system, manifolds etc, with new injectors somewhere, ecu is busted, but always can be replaced with megasquirt. Hmm, now I got second thought as it was from 1,9litre engine, Manta was 6 pot at least some age, right?
Maybe it is then from Ascona, anyway from 1,9l Opel OHC Engine, was installed to Kadett C of friend and he sold them cheap, had money so bought, can't say what was idea behind that, lol.
While I was looking new car few years ago I was keeping eye for RWD Ascona, all were with smallest engine so no deal, around 2ltr and rwd where what I was looking, somehow I happened to get mixed into Volvo and here we are
