My 24v Cosworth Capri

[jgill1981]

After 2 years of graft, including welding, new wings, new doors and a bucket load of tlc, i have managed to get my Capri to this stage.





and this is where i got the colour from......

[OllieBirmingham]

Wow, what an awesome car. Bet thats loads of fun.....

[jgill1981]

i love driving it, you can give it loads of stick and it begs for more

[adamfraser]

Lovely

[NiceCupOfTea]

I like that very much

[john185k]

stunning

spec?

[Ecurie Ecosse]

Fantastic! I love that car!

The understated colour, the wheels, the front grille, the wing mirrors - just awesome!

[GTWayne]

Looking very nice indeed but tell me, do you not get any aggro for sporting those pressed ali black plates? The fact that it is a retro motor hides the fact a little but I would have thought that an eagle eyed Plod would have something to say about it
P.S. I would like it even more but it don't half make me feel old.

What a car!!!! I've always loved capris since I was knee high to a grass hopper.

Had a couple of V6 Capri's and they're heaps of fun.

Looks superb and the colour suits it very well. Not so sure about the MKII Grille, Spotlights and the earlier Chrome Mirrors but I bet it sounds and goes very well with the 24v motor. Hope you've got a LSD.

Safe driving.

Is that the Scorpio engine?

[benny.c]

Not sure about the spots but that looks great, the colour really suits it Is it a bit of a handful in the wet?

[minisloth]

I like that lots

[YZF600R]

Very nice!

[The Black Duke]

Very, very nice car. I love the Capri.

[Garlick]

I love that....long time.

If it were mine, i'd lose the spots and the mirrors but thats all IMvHO

[bob1179]

Very cool motor!

What are the engine specs? Is it a boggo 24V Cologne out of a Scorpio Cosworth or have you 'tweaked' it a little?

What transmission is it running?

I'd love a Capri!

Very nice! dad's had well over 20 Capri's he always wanted to drop a cossie lump in one!

[jgill1981]

it is indeed the Granada lump, kicking out between 220bhp - 240bhp, its got the Atlas LSD as the car started life as a 2.8i special. But after its previous owners lack of respect, getting it back to factory spec was not an option.

just waiting to hear back from classic ford about a feature.

Old Skool Grill and Mirrors are an acquired taste. Can so many on here be wrong? I'd lose 'em, other than that

PS. Install Medallion and Furry Dice for full 80's irony.
