My Capri build
Being new here I though I would post some pics of my recently finished Capri build.
I built the car with a tuned 3.9 V8 and mods to bring the best out of the car , when I was young my brothers pal had a singal yellow 2.0 S and that is what made me fall in love with Capri's. When I came to build this car is was on his car that I basis my build

Cheers
No the Lauguna spolier is really easy to fit , start in the middle and drill and rivet till you get to the corner, taker a few small angle cuts , I gave it a bit of heat from a hairdrier and bend and riveted as I went , then just trimed the excess.
Mines is the plain one , the RT one has a wee vent in it but they are really common now so I just went for the plain one .
It gives the car the apperance of being lower too

That is lovely and i`m jealous......
I`ve had 11 Capri`s over the years including a nearly new 280 and a Tickford and i`m getting the bug back again
I`ve been feeling a bit like that recently, but a nice bit of sunshine(If we get a summer ) will soon fix that i reckon

Tis indeedy a excelent from your hard work, don't know about the too old bit I'm 44, me dad's got a xr4i with 4L TVR EFI lump, and he's 70!!
I think mad rod is the fastest old person though, bloody good luck to him I say.
Must admit never been a capri fan, but see a few around and getting to like them a bit, mate has a black 2.8i on a b reg that hasn't moved for 10 years, was immaculate before lay up.

Like Simon Cowell I'll say I don't really go for yellow as a rule.................................but it just works on Capris and Escorts IMO
Nice job you've done there
