Pretty sure that one is the same car that was owned by forum member 900dukess: http://www.classic-ford.org/cfp/Profile/2152/

Nice

I don't think it is. That car came from Melbourne and was restored to a very high level.
From reading the ad it look like it has a few issues with the paintwork.

Two different cars.  Mine is in Perth, not Tas so this car might be 900dukes old one.  I recall him posting that he sold his for a record price so I would expect a huge difference in asking price.  There is a thread about it in project section where he said previous owner was also a Ron from Tas.  He talks of a paint tidy up but didn't say if it went back to bare metal or not.  Perhaps pm him and ask what was done and who he sold it to. 
 
You don't need a capri expert to check mechanicals and paint, any car guy can do that, but you do need someone knowledgeable to check that its a genuine V6.  There are a few basic body checks that will quickly confirm.  For any old car asking top dollar you need to find out if the original paint is under the new paint or not and the only way to know without sanding a section back is to ask previous owners.  If it is 900dukes old car he had it resprayed in 2015 so paint should still be perfect.
 
You can test if new paint is acrylic or 2 pack by rubbing with acrylic thinners.  If 2 pack nothing will happen, if acrylic paint will start coming off.
 
 

What would you guys say a "record price" is for a restored Capri?
 
John Roberts are you still going to sell your orange Capri when you finish it, if so do you have a price indication?
 
 
 

The ‘record price’ was supposedly the same as Torana XU1 money, but was never fully disclosed. For me, that’s way too much. The car looks very nice, and is apparently reasonably low milage and well looked after, and 900dukess spent a lot of time chasing original parts to get it to where it is now, but it’s not worth the money it supposedly sold for. I’ve never seen the car in person, but was interested in buying it a few years back when it was going for around $20-25k.

I would guess at least high $40's.  Have a look at sold section on aussie muscle car sales.  A wild violet with 10 year old paint, cracked dash listed for $48500 marked as sold.

Does anybody know this Capri?

that car is mint, worth big dollars.

I have seen this Capri in tassie at a car show, it was the Shannons Hobart Car Show last year. I have a few photos of it I will dig out.
 
It certainly is the best Capri I have seen and a credit to its owner in particular to the level of detail. Could this be the best restored to original Capri in Australia? 
 
I do recall it won several trophies at that show.
 
I am sure somebody spent a significant amount of time and money restoring it. It would have to valued at $50k plus maybe closer $60k.
 
 
 
 

Hi Ron,
 
I personally know of the owner of that Orange Capri and it is not for sale.
 
 

Hi guys , just wanted to know why some V6 capri vin numbers ( stamps letter & numbers) are so different from capri to capri?
Some numbers on the front of the car ( not the strut tower )  have small font letters & then large numbers , some have a few small font letters & some are large? there doesnt seem to be much consistency ???
Did they just grab whatever stamp was laying on their work bench regardless of font size??
Cheers 
Did anyone ever get that great  OZ CAPRI REGISTER idea up & going ??? it would be of great benefit for many reasons.
