Re: Capri Assembly Line
Great finds there , my grandfather worked at fords in Dagenham and have some great memories of going around the site with him in the 70s and early 80s never with a thought how the cars would be classics one day . Also hard to believe it’s all gone . https://i.postimg.cc/rmFg4w7m/IMG-8514.png https:/...
