The one you have down as a Silver Manta is iirc the 'Silver Bullit'. A design exercise car by Vaux head designer Wayne Cherry. It is a Cavalier and was turbo charged (Ithink!!),and head a leather interior. He did a 'Black Magic' version based on the Chevette as well,pity they never went into production.  The one below it is based on the 'Sports Hatch', also another design excersice,the originals only had 'twinn' headlights not the three on this version. |

Great pics dude! This one is called "Silver Aero", and if I had the time, I could tell you all about it.  I see it at Billing, and always think it should be my car. Why? Cos I would spend some cash on it to bring it back to it's former glory, as that is what it really needs. I don't care if I went broke doing it, I'd do it - that's why I get a bit 'emotional' every time I see it. Never met the present owner, but it's rumoured that he's not exactly a pauper, and I simply don't understand why he won't get it fixed properly. It's an icon, he bought it for quite alot of money, promised to restore it properly, and hardly touched it! I'd love to know when it's gonna get finished!!!!! I'll STFU now.......... "Silver Bullet" is a Magnum Estate with the 2x3 headlights in a modified Firenza HP nosecone - lush! |

Do you know what "Nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible c*nt... me.
