Here's a capri im trying to rebuild for wagga in easter 2009
i got the car 30th of Nov 2008
car is going to be sprayed in the orignal fern green colour, and it going back to bare metal
the car is an orignal v4 gt xlr
if anyone reading this that might know of some parts that might help please let me know
I realy NEED the bracket that goes between the rubber mount on the crossmember and the engine block.
I'm also after a set of chrome vynal roof moulds!

I think I have the long straight vinyl roof moulds (there are 2 types, one goes around the fuel cap and one goes at the base of the C pillar) I think I have the latter. Engine mounts and a lot of V4 stuff could be found at JB Auto Transit wreckers in Dandenong ring and ask for Joe

thanks for the reply's
the roof trim im after is the one that folows the quarter window trim
and then cut around to the back near the boot.
as for the mark3 going to wagga, it all depends on if i finish this v4
thanks for the lead for the engine mounts
i'll try to ring them this week
O.

the mounts are different from the v6 as the motor is 2 cylinders shorter, the engine is very close to the timing cove, the v6 has a cast triangle bracket, bu tthe v4 has a stamped 6mm plate for the bracket.whooli i have a pair of escort mk1 struts, if your keen im in newcastle nsew if your keen for them. pm me if you are.
was that you selling all your capri's and escort;s on ebay th eother week?
ARe you keen on selling your mk3?
Im planing on going to england next june july to get a 78 model
it is the year i was born and would one from that year?
O.

You could try John at Capri Parts Mob. 0419673327 he had quite a few V4 motors with mounts sitting around 12-18 months ago. While I'm here,if anyone in south east QLD has a spare Rostyle for sale please let me know.

hooligan i have whatching prices in the uk for a 78 model, one in any condition is hard to find thats why i was asking you if you wanted to sell
here's an update on the v4
bought paint, what a pain in the back side to get the orignal colour
but here it is
and some rust repair panels from rare spare, i went into the newcastle branch in nsw and asked for the panels, they said they didn't do them, i said they did they replyed they didn't.
I had to show them on thier computer that they did, why is it so hard some times?

Don't tell me it's ready for paint already?!? [:u]

just an update, it has got 50% of the rust done and hope to have the bay in colour by next weekend, will post pic's soon

The rare spares screen lock strip is the wrong profile. I have the correct stuff cheaper if you need it.
Also getting some Mk 3 rust repair panels in end of this month for another guy, can email you pictures or you could come to Hornsby and have a gander if you want.

smcka i went to rare spare with a sample of the old stuff and a corner mould to get the correct one, but i might grab some of your's in a couple weeks for my other two mk1's
here's and update and the first shot's of the colour.
