Nigel Blandin Posted January 28 Report Posted January 28 Hi all, Just joined, don’t know why it took so long. I have a Capri hillclimb special that was built in Jersey in 1976. I’ve had it 14 years now and run it as original to the build as possible. We have a little website for it here ; https://sites.google.com/view/v8capri/home?authuser=0 . I am usually rebuilding parts of it, so do ask daft questions now and then. 1

Dave Knight Posted January 30 Report Posted January 30 (edited) Welcome to the fun house. Catering Meats Special. I visualised a liveried restored Anglia van🤣. Christ, that looks a handful. Edited January 30 by Dave Knight

Nigel Blandin Posted February 3 Author Report Posted February 3 Thanks all. It’s a pussycat if you want, but open the taps ( look down the carb- it is like taps flowing!) and the old girl fair flies. Trying to get the front suspension vaguely working for this year and yesterday I just found some wear in the blower vanes so that’s out as well now…Bleedin’ Fords!
