I rather like that, but I think the seller could have done with some more photos in the advert if they really wanted to sell it :lol:

Another blue Ford which I think will make it into this thread, sadly. I would be very tempted if it was affordable which I'm sure it won't be for me :-D

Who else remembers the original Ford Capri? A modified body from the Consul Classic of the time this car launched the Capri name into Ford's long and illustrious career with it! :-D

One of my customers bought one new, a red one, I fitted a radio for him, he wanted the aerial on the rear panel behind the RH side of the rear screen, I was surprised to find the panel there was lead loaded to over a quarter inch thick.

Gosh! Absolutely identical to mine in every way... That's going for very strong money for a 1.6! I prefer the 1.6 over the 1.9 - they're a lot more fun and so happily revvy!
