Sorry no pics on me at the moment, but I just wanted to say that I got to see that car in person and it was awesome. The exhaust tore the grass right from the ground and then blew the dirt away until there was a little impacted pit in the ground. It was so cool. It was part of a Corvette heritage display that came to my school during a few days of an engineering convention. I do have a pic of it, if I have some free time I'll try and scan it in.

The above picture is not a manta ray, but a mako shark...

Here's a picture of the manta ray when it was at the corvette museum...

I was talking about the GM Manta ray, that David posted, it's the GM mako shark2 with a restyled tail and the nose has a chin spoiler and changed exhaust.
My interest iin it is the headlights under clear covers where on the mako they opened like eye lids I thought.
I also received a Pic of the Motion Manta ray , that has datsun z type hadlight treatment and doen't look like GM's Manta, but is a super looking custom.
Many thanks to all.
T.

There was a Motion Performance corvette modification that gave it the Datsun Z headlights.

Here's another couple of pictures of the manta ray (one showing the headlights). Scroll down to the bottom, and look to the right...

The top one you posted in the one & only Motion Manta Ray, the bottom one is a Motion Phase III.

(OK, you've edited your post :-)

Motion Phase III

The November and December issues of Vette magazine have a couple of good articles about Joel Rosen, and his Motion Corvettes. Some nice pics of the Phase III, Phase III GT, Manta Ray, Maco Shark, and Spyder.
