RFChris Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 Oh yeah, the Pollitt has a Capri again...and this time it's half decent. The car is question was bought from Andy, aka Capriaddict on here. It was also very kindly delivered to Spooners today so that the work can begin. The car is a genuine 1976 3.0S. She's pretty damn solid too, there are some issues with the body but they're nothing that time and a bit of TLC can't sort. We're hoping to have her up and running by the end of the week, then we'll get her MOT'd so that we can see what needs to be done. Needless to say, i'm a happy camper. I can't wait to get her going. The plan is to get an MOT sorted and use it this summer, i'll then get it resprayed next winter. Hope you lot approve!
lee_capri Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 it looks very much a jps,but i do no you can buy them stripe's,so is it or is it not,but it's cool any-way you just got to love a diane
RFChris Posted December 2, 2007 Author Report Posted December 2, 2007 It's not a JPS, the stripes are a dealer fitted genuine option though

RFChris Posted December 2, 2007 Author Report Posted December 2, 2007 still very id love it :wink:ha sit got the fish nets or the roll top intreriour Roll top, it's a little rough but i'll get it recovered when i can afford it.
KEVSWAYV6 Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 Yep, looks nice. Good luck with getting it MoT'd.
hotrodholty Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 cool car mate. reminds me of my grandads jp special. only that was a 2ltr (i think) and it had gold revo 4 spokes on. brings back fond memories that fella
spooner Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 i've got some nice black sport bumpers now . she's a good un mate
Gareth Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 Looks great Chris m8 Defo not a JPS, they have a pinstripe around the edge of the bonnet
john_3.0s Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 love that mate, jps or not thats a rare old mk2 nowdays. looks nice and original
capriaddict Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 To answer a couple of earlier question's Its a genuine early black "S" not a jps (it is very simillar though and an easy mistake to make ) The stripes are standard fit not an option MK2 S's didn't get recaro seats or fishnet headrest's they only came in with the MK3 Enjoy it Chris
