Thanks for the welcome and encouragement. It's an nteresting story on how the guy bought the car and the road trip that followed from the States into Canada, so must have been quite an adventure! I've seen this motor on another site previously and always liked the look of it, being a 2.8 Ghia, with a paint job that really compliments the car in my opinion. I own a MK1 federal Capri, and always on the lookout for a yank Capri ll to keep it company, hence my interest in this particular vehicle...
