  1. Nice one Lara! I shall definately be havin a look, your capri is well mean
  2. Lovely! Pillarless beaut nice buy chris
  3. Its legal if the preson/garage has a certain certificate in welding - i dont know which one though
  4. Speakers sound better with some sort of box behind them - i had a 6x9 in my house hooked it up to a stereo to test it and it sounded shit, i was well dissapointed, until i put it into my upside down hard hat from work and it sounded 100 times better! think you should mount them with some sort of 'space' behind like a small makesift box or something - maybe outta balsa wood so it aint heavy!!
  5. Cheers bud ill have a gander at that website. Will a 9" axel go on with ease? What mod would be needed? Cheers Ian
  6. A good friend of mine put one in his Capri a couple of years ago and its not finished as he is frequently unwell and has an extremely demanding job. His enthusiasm has waned but i know he absolutely loves it like - i was wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a few parts for him - one thing - they MUST be cheap!! He needs a waterpump as the bearings are gone its a 1980 ish engine and the pump has two small pipes coming off at about 10 oclock (if you know what i mean!) and a pulley on the front (aparently they changed this about a bit) Its out of a thunderbird. also needs a starter solanoid its one of the ones that is separate from the starter as it keeps sticking on Also some advise - how strong is the standard 2.0s capri axel and diff? IE will it take the v8 or will he have to get a 3.0 or 2.8 one? Its all hooked up now but he just thinks itll probably blow up. Thats it for now i think. Need to get him perked up and enthusiastic again! Cheers people, any advise will suffice!
  7. tasty! Done any night time drives down country lanes?
  8. Ace! Lookin forward to seeing this
  9. That orage is well nice specially with the black wheels I had stripes on my Capri for a while off cetr though - looked hard as nails! your matt black would look good with a thick stripe down the centre in gloss black i reckons
  10. Thats brilliant!!
  11. You shouldnt need to take the wing off for that just chop it out and get a plate welded in, thats what id do! The wings are annoying coz tghey're welded on not bolted so they're a pain to remove and replace
  12. And maybe a spare clutch ratchet and an extra arm....
  13. Awesome chris How much was it all and where from? take it you did shocks as well? I wanna sort the suspension next on my MK5!
  14. Well, sanded my bonnet down today (rusted already with the rain!) just gotta wait till the weather is nice and im gonna spray it! Cant wait, got a can of primer and a can of matt black just waitin on my back seat! Any advice from fellow matt blackers before i begin? Fingers crossed Tuesday is a nice day as im busy tomorrow. feckn love matt black
  15. zorst this month, clamps next month
  16. I might take you up on that, but are they all in pink?
  17. Fair enough! Ive got a vid of me Tina and old Capri if you ever wanna make one
  18. Thats a good idea but makes me feel kinda sick thinking bout it! Ive got a very good imagination so i can almost feel my fingers being sliced, id forget id glued them there!
  19. Could you change the wings yourself and then find a good paint sprayer? Save you money i'd expect - Im going to be doing the wings on mine at some point in the future shame theyre spot welded though and not bolted on
  20. What does it need doing?
