Re: RS 13 INCH RIM CODING

Hello Peter , Thanks for the message. I live in Whangarei which is above Auckland. The car needs a few bits and pieces but mk1 parts are pretty rare in NZ. I also have a 66 gt mustang which I like as well. The capri is a project car , my brothers and dad have heaps of cars in Taranaki. Who knows on...

Re: RS 13 INCH RIM CODING

What Andrew says. They will be Capri wheels just 10 years or so younger than your car.
Nice car though. Which part of NZ, just out of interest.

Some impressive fabrication going on there, and research of course. Way beyond anything I would ever contemplate but good luck with the project.

Re: Forum social weekend 3 -5 July 2024

The field is a public camping field so anyone can contact the pub that owns it and book whatever days they want. Got it, understood, thank you Peter. It's a decent size field Paul and we've nabbed a corner away from the main hook ups not that it seems to get that busy. Here we are getting set up la...

Re: Forum social weekend 3 -5 July 2024

Forum Social Weekend? That's a much more elevated title than usual :) Are you trying to deter the riff raff. Out of interest, is camping available/allowed for all of those days, or even longer if someone wished. For example could someone set up camp and stay from the 2nd to the 6th if they wanted? ...

Re: A funny forum passtime...

Have you gents also been looking at our Newest Members profiles? They're all very similar, they never post either. The car is always described slightly oddly too, hard to put a finger on, but like the current newest member, who states their Capri is a "Ford capri mk3 2.0 OHV 1980 ,black" ...
