Re: [MarcosManiacs] Mantis XP2 race car

2004-12-22 by Don Lattimer

Andy,

The Mantis XP is in San Ramon, CA.  Still owned by the four Morris sons.  I 
believe Tony Stelliga was talking to them over a year ago about purchasing 
the XP.  Don't know what the outcome was.

The XP2 is a Mantula I believe with mods.

Don
