    New Manta member

    Greetings all My name is Jeff and I am From Santa Barbara.
    Found this Manta on Facebook Market Place for $3,000.00 After about a month of back and forth negotiating I was able to purchase it for $2,000.00 Including all parts, windows, 2 windshields, Mustang ll suspension, Corvair transaxle and a Porsche 915 Transmission.
    Here are some pictures of it in Barstow and at My house after a day of cleaning.
    I am about 4 months into the build with just searching internet articles and am hoping for some building tips in this forum.
    I have a lot of pics to post soon!
    Hope all is well and thanks for reading My introduction.
