1973 BUICK / OPEL MANTA / 1900 I'VE ALWAYS LIKED THE LOOK OF THESE CARS. REALLY A NICE LOOKING DESIGN!! NICE CLEAN & ORIGINAL EXAMPLE READY TO RESTORE OR PLAY WITH! THESE WERE BUILT IN GERMANY BY OPEL FOR GM & SOLD IN THE US AT BUICK DEALERS IT WAS OWNED BY A COLLECTOR & HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR SOME TIME. IT IS NOT QUITE A DAILY DRIVER, BUT SHOULD NOT TAKE MUCH TO MAKE IT ONE. OVERALL A VERY NICE & CLEAN CAR! MECHANICALLY ACTUALLY IN GOOD SHAPE. I'M SURE IT WOULDN'T HURT TO RUN SOME FRESH GAS THROUGH IT, IT'S A LITTLE COLD BLOODED & IDLES A LITTLE HIGH, BUT THE LITTLE 4 CYLINDER ENGINE ACTUALLY RUNS GREAT! WHEN SHE WARMS UP IT IS SMOOTH & PEPPY! THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT TOO. SOLID SHIFTS WITH NO SLIPPING. WILL MAKE SOMEONE AN EZ RESTORATION OR JUST A FUN DAILY DRIVER WITHOUT MUCH WORK AT ALL!! FRONT END, GRILLS, FRONT BUMPER, ETC. ARE ALL VERY NICE! STRAIGHT & CLEAN! THE PAINT JOB OVERALL NOT BAD, BUT IS SHOWING IT'S AGE WITH CHIPS & BLEMS HERE & THERE!! BUT I THINK IT ACTUALLY WOULD LOOK FINE FOR A DAILY DRIVER. YOU WILL WANT TO REPAINT IT IF YOU WISH TO RESTORE OR SHOW IT! MOST IMPORTANTLY, IT HAS NO ADVANCED RUST PROBLEMS AT ALL! LIKE MOST OF OUR CARS, WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR UP ON A HOIST & LOOKED IT OVER PRETTY THOROUGHLY & IT IS SOLID THROUGHOUT. OTHERWISE, HERE ARE THE PARTICULARS: VIN: OL77NC9815174 ODOMETER READING: 83083 I WOULD ASSUME BASED ON AGE & OVERALL CONDITION THAT IT IS PROBABLY 83K ORIGINAL. BUT WE DO NOT GET SECURE ODOMETER STATEMENTS ON CARS OLDER THAN 10 YEARS, SO LIKE ALL OF OUR VEHICLES 10 YEARS & OLDER IT IS BEING SOLD AS:MILES EXEMPT. BODY: SUPER NICE! STRAIGHT & SOLID. GLASS: WINDHIELD HAS A SMALL ROCK CHIP, OTHERWISE ALL GLASS IS GOOD. THIS IS THE NICEST ONE WE'VE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME! STRAIGHT, CLEAN & SOLID! REAR TAILLIGHT PANEL & REAR BUMPERS LOOK NICE AND STRAIGHT! YOU CAN GET A GOOD IDEA ... OF JUST HOW AMAZINGLY STRAIGHT IT IS FOR AN ALMOST 40 YEAR OLD CAR BY.... LOOKING DOWN THE SIDES IN THESE PICTURES. NICE SET OF ORIGINAL RALLY STYLE WHEELS WITH A DECENT SET OF RADIAL TIRES. THEY ALL HAVE GOOD TREAD LIFE LEFT, BUT ARE SHOWING SOME WEATHER CHECKING FROM SITTING, SO PROBABLY NEED TO BE REPLACED BEFORE TOO MUCH LONGER. INTERIOR: DASH PAD HAS THE TYPICAL CRACK. BUT IT WOULD LOOK FINE WITH A DASH COVER. THE GAUGES ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE FOR IT'S AGE. OVERALL NICE & CLEAN. AND GAUGES ALL APPEAR TO BE WORKING NICELY. AM FM CASSETTE STEREO THE BUCKETS ARE IN NICE SHAPE! CARPETING LOOKS GOOD TOO. REAR SEATS & PANELS OVERALL LOOK VERY GOOD AS WELL! HEADLINER & VISORS ARE LOOK GOOD. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR PANEL LOOKS TO BE IN VERY NICE SHAPE! THE PASSENGER SIDE LOOKS VERY GOOD AS WELL. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SEATS. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR. TRUNK IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. SOLID & DRY. THE 4 CYLINDER 1.9 LITER LOOKS ALL ORIGINAL & RUNS GOOD. VERY SMOOTH, QUIET & PEPPY! BUT AS WE MENTIONED BEFORE, A FRESH TUNEUP, SOME FRESH FUEL & REGULAR USE WILL DO IT A WORLD OF GOOD! MECHANICAL: SIZE: 115.8ci / 1.9 LITER 4 CYLINDER REALLY RUNS SMOOTH TRANSMISSION: TYPE: AUTOMATIC. SHIFTS NICE! BRAKES TYPE: HYDRAULIC CONDITION: THEY WORK, BUT SHOULD BE CHECKED BEFORE DRIVING ANY DISTANCE. SINCE IT HAS BEEN SITTING. STEERING: CONDITION: NICE & TIGHT! VERY SMOOTH & RESPONSIVE! WHEELS: FACTORY RALLY STYLE. GREAT CONDITION! TIRES STEEL RADIALS. CONDITION: GOOD. BUT WEATHERCHECKED AS MENTIONED ABOVE. EXHAUST: GOOD CONDITION. SMOOTH & QUIET! NICE LITTLE CAR!
