McLaren M6 Kit Car: 1984 Manta Montage

I would seriously drive this next car every single day if I could fit a few car seats into the back...because it combines the basic practicality of a Chevy V8 that'll get you to the grocery store and back with the menacing looks of a McLaren M6 racer. This is the car that'll get your neighbors talking about you behind your back...but those know-nothing do-gooders are stuck in the world of fleasing new sport utility vehicles with high monthly payments and zero street cred -- forget 'em.  Buy this 1984 Manta Montage offered for $18995 in Phoenix, AZ via craigslist.  Tip from FuelTruck.

Odd Man Out: 1986 Manta Montage

Another day, another Manta?  Wait...what?  You might remember Manta as the Costa Mesa based builder who put together the insane Mirage kit that was designed to be fitted with a small block V8 engine -- we featured one a few days ago.  Apparently Manta didn't stop producing kit cars when the pot haze of the '70s cleared and they built a cocaine fueled car in the '80s called the Montage.  Find this 1986 Manta Montage here on eBay bidding for $4,995 reserve-not-met in Utica, MI with 5 days to go.
