I saw this car last week at a car show, maybe not to everyone's taste, but it was stunning and done to a very high standard. It's all metal and although hard to see in the photos the doors and rear quarters have been heavily reworked too. When I first walked over to it from the front it took me a while to realise it was actually a Capri. I liked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinkamon Posted September 14, 2019 Report Share Posted September 14, 2019 I think if ford sold that now, along with the current trend of resurgence of mustang Camero etc etc it'd be right at home, stick a eco boost motor in there everyone's happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubble windows just for you too Scott @Vista That's been on here before, very much "of its time" and a good indication why the Capri used to have a tasteless reputation. The '80s custom scene hasn't helped it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In car circles here a donk is reference to a big iron block engine. Like a big block V8 Donk etc In India a Bombay Bad-onka-donk is well .......... they advertise on here sometimes mistaking the type of Escorts we pay big money for as well.
