Re: WANTED: plastic underside of tailgate

Hey guys sorry for the slow reply, I've been away on tour with some bands.

Do any of you have a grey one? I'm based in Lancashire, so if you're fairly close by I could come and pick it up, otherwise I could transfer the money to you including funds to post it to me.

Thanks
Alex

WANTED: plastic underside of tailgate

Hi all I'm after the plastic part that goes along the underside of the tailgate on a Mk3 Capri. It sits between the rear windscreen and the boot locking mechanism, and also covers up the rear wiper motor. I've managed to crack mine after accidentally shutting it on an armoured lens case this weekend...

Re: Mk3 Laser rear springs

If you are going to be carrying a large weight regularly then stick to the multileaf springs. They can carry the weight better than the single leafs. If you will only be carrying it once in a blue moon then singles would be my choice, They give a slightly better ride as the there is no friction bet...

Mk3 Laser rear springs

Hi I have a '86 2 litre Laser, and I've found the rear suspension is a little low (probably due to carrying amplifiers and gear around before I could afford a van!) I know that the multi-leaf springs and the struts on it must be pretty old and tired by now. But what would be the best option to repla...

Mk3 Front bumper wanted

Hi all I'm after a new front bumper for my Mk3 Laser, as mine finally has too many holes in to bother repairing. I do have the plastic bits that attach to the side though, and so wouldn't need those, but I could do with some of the rubber over-riders that help attach it to the front, as mine are pre...

MK3 Bonnet wanted

Hi
Does anybody have a whole bonnet for a MK 3 for sale? Preferably black but this does't matter too much as I could always re-spray it :)

Thanks

Re: Breaking 1.85 2.8i Special

Hi
How much would you want for the bonnet?
Also, what colour is it? (not that this really matters as I could always re-spray it)

Thanks

Re: WANTED: Mk3 Front Valance

Ok so in the day that I was away and without access to my computer Powerdrive257 has sold the front valance that he had available, so unfortunately I've missed out on that.

Has anyone else got or know of a front valance for sale or a Capri for breaking that I could take one off?

Thanks

Re: WANTED: Mk3 Front Valance

I have a brand new genuine MK3 front panel/valance. I bought it in 1988 for my 2.8i but never used it, found it in my dads attick today. It has a small amount of surface rust on the underside of the bonnet release bracket, apart from that all very good Ian. That would be perfect! How much would you...

Re: WANTED: Mk3 Front Valance

I have one which may be available on a Laser that I'm breaking. I will know for certain on Tuesday. What kind of money are you expecting to pay for one? Awesome, if you do have on going, will you let me know please? :) I've currently no idea how much they're worth but I've only a budget of a few hu...

Re: starter motor

I had this problem recently, - when I turned my ignition on all I heard was a click from the solenoid on the starter motor. It turned out simply that the spade connector on the starter motor had come loose, and so I tightened it up (along with all the other connections, just to make sure), sprayed i...

Re: Ford Capri Laser... insurance - HELP!

Thanks for the replies guys! I've been looking into getting classic car insurance, but the difficulty comes in finding a classic car insurance company that will insure someone who is under 21, and at a reasonable price too :? Also, I can't really put one of my parents on as the main driver as I'll b...
