Opel Manta SR Gr2 Monte C. 72 #9 Transki by Arena
For Minichamps
The 1972 Monte Carlo rally appears to have been a particularly snowy and icy affair with a high rate of retirements, this car among them. Intended for a Minichamps die-cast of a Manta road car (it would help if this information was on the instruction sheet please Arena), we are provided with decals for the Conrero entered machine, white metal parts for the roll cage and spot lights, a pair of spare wheels & tyres in resin and a wealth of fine photo-etch including the magnificent snow chains for those spare wheels.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
