A couple of capris I found on my travels - the green one is an original 1971 peppermint v6
But the rust is starting to poke thru

tell me you didn't buy these as well Spud?
Green one would look good with Pan-Am white and blue mock up.

I'd buy them but He wouldn't sell.

He Thinks the green one is a special model - one of 500 made - and worth over 200k
The cologne kit has been nicely done....

I saw a KA a few years ago in a wreckers and remember thinking that the engine looks exactly like a fuel injected Kent. I wonder how close the inlet etc is to the Kent head

Capri The car I always promised myself

its been sitting out in the weather for years  - im betting it'll be there in another 5, rusting away (not bad for a 200k car)
 
 Anyway, ive kept his number - ill ring once a year and give him the offer again. (I don't particularly want the shell as it stands - not into the wide body thing personally, so if I ever get the car....)
 
a lot of juicy stuff on it.

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.....
