New car arriving on Thursday

A big rusty pile of 1.8 L Manta is being delivered to my drive/garden next Thursday. I've always wanted a manta, but this one is a bit beyond repair in the bodywork area. Or at least thats what I'm hoping. 10 points to the first person to guess what my plans for it are

. Penski's excluded from entering, to easy for him

If you mean 1.8 8v into something else then that would be it

. The chevette is taking a step up in the world and getting Manta Power. 90bhp so reasonabley powerfull for a car that comes in under 800kg, but it leaves me with all the parts to put an XE in later

. I've also got some Corbreau Pro-Race seats to go in at some point so when all this starts happening I'll make a project thread with lots of pictures.
