Restoring an old Manta Mirage. Mustang 2 front. Corvair rear. Chevy 350. Changing to all coil overs and disc brakes, then getting it running, then we will see what changes I might want after driving it.

This car was in Long Beach, Calif. for 40 years. It was white, with a blue frame, and all the body vents were painted blue.

Welcome aboard Jerry. We'd enjoy any photos you'd like to share of your Manta.

I will start a build thread, well a rebuild thread under "General Manta Mirage", with many pictures.

Welcome to the site Jerry! Please keep us posted, I find looking at pics of other cars I always pick up something I can use on mine. I have the same set up so I will be following closely what you do to upgrade yours!

That's a problem because I was about to follow closely what you do to upgrade yours. LOL !

I've got varying ideas from mild to wild. I like driving mine and if I go wild then it will be off the road. So I'm kind of leaning toward mild.
