I stumbled across a magazine, Ford Power No 2, at the recent Lifeline Bookfest in Brisbane.
It contained several features on Capris, including pictures from the NSW Capri Club Concours in August, 1990. That's nearly 24 year ago!
Are these cars still around & do they still look as good?
A few more pictures on my blog: http://fordcaprichatter.blogspot.com.au/

Gee, Owen, you have a good memory!
Do you keep a book on where these cars go?
That red Capri (page 1) looked a beautiful car & it's a pity that it's gone to heaven.
There is also double page feature with 3 RS 3100s on it, so I will try & scan it for you. It has a section cut out but I guess you will also know these cars.

Here's the pics of the RS3100s from the same mag.
They were taken at the RS Club Concours on 22 July 1990.

Hey Ian, there are 6 capris in that pic, and all still out there 2 red 2 blue ans 2 white. the yellow 4dr rs2000 is still around and looks the same, same cant be said for the 2dr i believe.
Red capri with the vynil roof was stolen and thrashed, sad to say
