Re: CRaP 2020 July 3/4/5 - postponed

Hi guys long time no speak I hope you're all well. I noticed it was getting to that time of the year again and was wondering the other day if CRaP was on this weekend or not? Seeing as it's the first weekend in July. :)

Re: Sainsbury meet Sunday

So we're here down near Brooklands stopping at a lovely hotel in Shepperton tonight. We had a gorgeous 2 course meal and a nice walk round this lovely little town. I'm the only Capri staying here unfortunately but I know Brooklands is going to be a big event when a 280 Brooklands came flying past me...

Re: Fish net head rests

I've got 1 original capri S fishnet headrest in black vinyl. I was thinking of selling it as I can't find another to match it and they go for silly money now. I did plan to dye the vinyl dark Gray to match my early 2.8i blue check Recaro's I've got. But I think I might just stick with the original s...

Re: Ex Pressed panels MK3 wings

Hi Martin I also had a long chat with a chap and women who owned a 2.8i capri on the expressed steel panels stand at the NEC on the Saturday about mk3 wings and front panels. The mk3 wings they sell at the moment are another company's cheaper pattern part. But when they start making their own mk3 wi...

Re: What to do with my Laser?

That's the same set up on my 1.6 pinto thanks to Dave "340truck" who built the engine a few years ago. I'm planning on purchasing a 4:2:1 manifold and system next year to go on it. :)

Re: Dash Speaker ?

When i first brought my capri I wondered why there was speaker holes on the dash but no speaker. Then I thought why did ford keep the holes when there's no speaker I just thought it was maybe a way of keeping the radio/cassette cool when its on.
