haha - yes always looking - I went to pick up another car
 

 
(8hp roadster - ball tearer!) but always ask the question - there was a legend, of a green capri in those parts parked next to a house in the middle of nowhere - took me a while to find it but persistence pays off
 
It (the green capri) used to live in Mornington (vic) - so obviously it must be known in Victorian circles being as unique a build as it is.....

especially with that inlet manifold.

I didn't look at it to close. I fronted up with high hopes (out in the weather, rust popping thru etc),  but went a bit limp when he told me that he thought it was a rare RS3100 1971 European special thingo -  quickly lost interest....
(I guess you could back a truck up one night - a long way from anywhere)
 
It does have a HQ master cyl for some reason (I didn't look at the brakes). I was thinking 5k, he's up around 200k, I need 195k worth of rust to develop before the deal is done.
 
Ive been there once before - found a lovely white 4 cyl but she wouldn't sell. The next time I saw it, milk thistles were growing up where the floor used to be - she was ready to sell then, I was thinking more along the lines - you pay me to bring a brush and shovel - it happens ....

My panel beater has a mate who makes these for rare spares so after he cut it he put a set on. Wasn't on my list but they look nice
