Well Iv voted for the Maestro Turbo...

The 75 is not a restoration, it’s a creation.

The Opel Manta brought back memories for me - first car I bought was a 1.8 Berlinetta.

Practical Classics have accepted it in class and I suppose it could be argued that it is a restoration of a concept.

Having read the piece in Practical Classics I see that Gerry spoke very well of this club and its members. What a guy and what a car.

Voted. The title should be changed though as the coupe was a lot more than a restoration.

Clearly the voting is going to be close, but for what it is worth, I voted for Gerry.
