come to a decision

[Retro-gone.]

after finding a few holes and some rust on the capri ive decided next winter to do a full strip down to the shell and have the rot cut out and replaced with new metal, its not much but i want to catch it before it gets too bad, while its fully stripped im going for a full colour change which will be metalflake purple, a proper 70's custom colour , does anyone know a trustworthy man in the yorkshire area that can take my shell and do the work and know its been done properly?

[Copey]

sounds like a good plan Tony

 

love the colour idea

[Mk2Jo]

I think the colour will suit the car mate Like you say, proper 70's

[Retro-gone.]

my 70's custom capri was purple flake and that looked awesome.

bit of a poor pic but it really looked good, specially when the sun shone on it.

[Copey]

just dont put a wheel barrow and spoiler on this one

[Mk2Jo]

I quite like those rear arches

I dont know anyone personally but the guy who does all the jaguars at my dads mates garage seems very good....but he isnt cheap

[Dr Feelgood]

PURPLE!!!!

 

best choice you could have made tony cant wait to see it done

[Copey]

[FredTransit]

OO I am looking forward to seeing that, but what are you going to do with the yellow bits on the engine?

[Guest cortinamad-gonetoo]

[Retro-gone.]

OO I am looking forward to seeing that, but what are you going to do with the yellow bits on the engine?

lol, seemed a good idea at the time tom, i learnt debs to drive in that capri and she couldnt see over the bonnet bulge so she had to drive with her head to one side

[Copey]

hahaha, bet that was fun to watch!

[mk1super]

No Tony please dont do it i love your car just as it is looks amazing and is a credit to your graft mate But...................
