I actually quite like the car... Call me mad, but it reminds me of Mad Max (why I came up with my user name just in case anyone haddent figured it out.

I still think your mental for cutting up two perfectly good cars when, you could have just taken the engine out of one and shoe horned it into the Capri. It's hard, but I've seen it done with a V12 jag lump in a Capri before. (funny story about that one, I'll see if I can't find the post.)

I just can't get my brain round why you would would sandwich a Merc with Capri back and front.

Were or are you aiming for the batmobile? are you secretly cat woman? and who the hell smoothed over the rear windows with filler? you must have a blue peter badge for your efforts here but you should defo of left it as "heres one we made earlier"

Im not on about how rough it is, but looks like youve just gone over it with pure filler, Filler should never be more than 1/4 inch thick or itll crack. lol

Good luck to you, your gonna need it

I MUST BE MISERABLE?! hahaha yeah ok mate! hahaha im happy with what i am and do. if i wasnt id be like the masses of people out there.. boring. predictable. a FOLLOWER.


and as for 'never be more than 1/4 of an inch thick with filler - are you fucking blind?! - there is barely a millemeter on any of the car with the exception of the curvy spines at the back and the nose edges..

where did the sandwich bit come from...? did you not understand the very clear explanation i put SEVERAL TIMES on here as to exactly what i was gonna do? cos if you did you wouldnt be saying something totally different...

what bit do you mean? do you mean when you look at it form the back and see the plate shapes..? or when you look at it from the back and you see the unfinished and bit that im gonna change so the window is vertical rather than at an angle (under the TOP plate)..?

oh that bit! they are just big steel plates that are tacked on. as i will probably alter them to look like louvres on an actual window (that you can buy in plastic, ally or fibre) i just welded once and ground it down a bit. just took any edges left over off with a bit of compound. till i know where and how much i have to alter EVERYTHING else on the body, its good enough as it is. the temporary stuff and time it took to get a doner car and somewhere to do it all was never supposed to last or take this long... but hey ho.

i already made a gas powered 11mm, 7 barrel machine gun for the bonnet... did that when i was 18. even spins on its own for looks with an extra motor! and prescisely 47.2mm in barrel to case back length - THE SOLEreason i have no passenger door or seating.... to house the very large GAS TANKS and valve bodies.

This genuinely needs scrapping, you would have been better just having a merc and a capri as two nice normal cars rather than this fucking hideous thing.

Fair play for having a go but i'd find a better idea for a project if i were you.

You are going to be going on my ignore list as I have simply stopped giving a fly fuck now

I was willing to give you the benifit of the doubt, I was giving you a little encouragement as I didn't want you to give up, I didn't go on the usual pf bandwagon of how girls and cars dot mix, etc but it's fairly clear to everyone who has posts on this thread that not only are you are not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and a few sandwiches short of a picnic, if brains were dynamite you wouldn't have enough to blow your nose

Which all goes to show that sometimes, it pays to join the bandwagon at the start, especially when it comes to girls who try to modify cars, and end up with a pile of toot that even an emo wouldn't want to claim as their own

Someone will have to figure out what your reply will be now, I can't see many takers

You have some anger issues you like!

You either need to :-



or talk to :-



Stop trying to fall out with the whole of passionford. You constantly being 'eggy' with everyone.

The wealth of information on here is unreal. Ask a question, it will get answered.

Don't come on like some spoilt little brat giving it "i want that merc engine in my capri and no ones gonna stop me"

Listen to what peoples saying to you it wont work.

I think I saw this Capri at one of the shows in Castle Combe last year? Possibly Performance Action Day?

Think it was parked on the stand opposite ours
