Here are some interior photos.  The dealers here sold this interior as a “decor group”.  I’ve had a redo on the seats and the headliner.  The plush center inserts are a replacement for a fake perforated vinyl that ours came with.  The original steering wheel was a bulky 2 spoke, this one is a Momo.  You all seem to have yours on the wrong side? ( : ) )
its a Ford C-4 , 3 speed auto Mated to the 2.8 Cologne motor.  Eventual plan is to replace it with a Borg Warner T5.  It came with an  AM/FM pushbutton radio which I plan to replace, hiding a more modern unit in the glove box.

I forgot, the rear deck is a reproduction molded plastic piece sold by a company called “Team Blitz” in Ohio.  The owner is Norm Murdock, a Capri enthusiast for 40 years or more.  The part sells for about $160.
 The wheels are by a company called American Racing, 13x7.  They were a popular make back in the day.  The badges are a repaint by a friend who builds custom model cars.  I obtained faded ones and showed him a picture of the original.
BV thanks for reminding me to take a pause and some photos!

Hi RJ
 
Very good photography of a very nice car / The plastic bars def makes it look more modern which it really is being a 1977 model, which we never got. It's what I believe to be the Mk1 Face-Lift as we never saw 4 small headlamps. Our oval headlamp was identical to Hillman Hunter, VH Valiant, LH Holden Torana, etc. I am impressed with these fully sealed Lucas Oval Beams, compared to the rubbish out of India and 3rd world countries where no "engineering" or "optics research" took place; just poor copies as H4 semi s/b.
 
All our Aussie production was limited to Mk1 from 1969 to 1972; the vast majority being 4 cyl
None of our Mk1 saw your tail lamps as again; update from 1973 on.   I do prefer the early ones being smaller and surrounded by chrome to match the Bars, and they didnt seem to fade like so many other models, and being smaller and protected by a chrome frame , they weren't as susceptible to "damage" or chipping.
 
What sort of Carby was mandated for your area RJ ?  Our V6's were Weber 2bbl 40DFAV,  except our last 11 "specials" which were D-Port 165 HP with Weber 2bbl 38DGAS, of which I can't speak highly enough. Mine D-port V6 was in solid storage for 10 years, then 15 years with new owner who only drove round the block twice a year till I purchased car 7 years ago and needed ZERO Carby attention; bloody unreal !  (Makes me proud to be Italian!)  Good luck with any of that on any modern junk!
 
Love your wheels and great resto on those badges. Mine are faded badly; must find an artist to do mine
 
We had an exclusive colour scheme here in Oz, and my Capri colour is called "Wild Plum"

Hi Anna,
I think this thread has run its course now, and you probably wont see many more orders.
Given thats the case, can you please confirm final pricing in AUD, including shipping to each member, so that orders can be placed.
 
I will order:
1 set of 1971 MK1Capri bumpers, including 1 x rear, and 2 x front 1/4 bumpers, without indicator cutouts.
Please advise final price, private message me or just list it here, including postage to Geelong (Melbourne) and I will arrange payment.
 
thanks
Dean

Anna, I am still in for a front and rear set. Without side marker cut outs on the front quarter bumpers. I need a price quote in USD. Then can arrange payment/ shipping as per our email conversation.

BV, Thanks for the pics. I like the lights on the Oz models. You all can see why I want to switch to Anna's bumpers from my pics. (US 2.8's got a motorcraft 5200, probably for smog regulations, and 73 and prior mainland cars were not facelift models)

Thanks,
RJ

Guys I am confused watching this all unfold. The post above is like reading chinglish instructions.
I have a full front bar and want to keep it that way. Also are the bars pre drilled ready to go (with number plate lamp cutout) or will they require drilling?
Anna if you read this can you please quote all up full front and rear bars with postage to 2540.
Thanks,
Mark
