andyh Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I've owned a few Ford Capri's over the years from 1.6 up to 2.8i and always found them great fun to drive, although you always needed a few bags of sand in the boot to keep them on the road , but I have always had a soft spot for them. So I spotted this kit on Ebay going cheap as the body was damaged, and I am really pleased with the outcome, the repair is far from perfect but I am happy with it. Although I might go back and try and repair the A pillar better. Last week I brought another Zakspeed Capri kit with different livery, so looking forward to building that, but the prices are getting silly now for these kits. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybgoode Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 That's really nice - I have seen this a few times on eBay and not been overly interested. Seeing one built though it looks a fun kit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstaff Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Love the Capri Had a MK3 black 3.0S a fair few years ago, wish I'd still got it now I totally agree with a couple of bags of sand in the boot though Never built one of these, looked a few times but never actually got one Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabRoberts Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Nice one, always loved the Capri, I remember the excitement I felt as a kid when my dad said he was getting one, hoping it would be a 3.0s in silver like The Professionals. It wasn't, it was a 1.6 in beige with a vinyl roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Ranger Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I owned a 1974 U.S.-spec Capri, but it didn't look anything like that! It was a great car, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyChiken Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 These are basic kits right? Originally made for a motor and battery, but they look great on display when built up, your looks excellent! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
