Roger, where's mine on your pics?? Haha. I have the 2 door coupe Manta, but it was also sold as the Vauxhall Cavalier coupe, more commonly seen then as the 4 door mk1 Cavalier in the late 70's.

Here's mine:-

I thought the same thing and then I realised it is a supersized picture which needs scrolling to the right for about 10 minutes Twisted Evil then you will see a 2dr.

Note to Ashley, please resize the picture.

I'm very sorry about the picture wiz, but it's a link from the Wiki and I can't resize it.

The 1936 three window Ford Coupe is one of the extremely valuable ones that the likes of Jay Leno buy and the hot rodders roof chop.

Finally managed to change enormous picture for one of a sensible size.

Ford Coupes are getting very valuable and being imported to the UK and parts of Europe and Hemmings is the place to see some.

It made £29,000

Myt son's 1950 Ford Shoe Box Coupe.



It's a rolling restoration and still has a standard flathead V8

BMW 327/80



Very rare Riley Lincock



This is a specially built 1936 three window Ford Coupe with a roof chop, a Lincoln Zephyr dashboard and Rolls-Royce trim built for a member of the UK vintage Hot Rod association. His dad has a '32 Coupe with a V8 and they drive all over Europe in them. Its a growing movement and is producing some amazing cars.
