Re: Capri 2/3 Bonnet lip for sale
Oh please! There is no “not forthcoming” involved. It’s as simple as this - I forgot! If you are registering serious interest, you could always make me an offer around the £45 mark. You’re obviously on here because you know the value of such items. I’m happy to sit on these items but thought it migh...

Re: BEHR heater flaps
Hi,
I’ve undertaken this task also. Just cleaned off the dusty old covering and replaced with 2mm foam. As a result of the rebuild ive got a complete heater box for sale and an additional motor and resistor if anybody is looking for these items?

Re: TYPE 5 gearbox colour
Thanks for all the replies guys, I went for this in the end, somehow black didn’t cut it for me. I’m hoping it will contrast nicely when the shell is back from the body shop. Bare metal and then coating the underbody in bed liner. Should be good for the next 20 years? 6A64142C-DAE6-413A-AC47-7881D96...

TYPE 5 gearbox colour
Hi all,
I am trying to find out what the original colour of a type 5 gearbox was for a 2.8i Capri. Was it all black or just the bell housing?
Thanks in advance
Paul

2.8i fuel tank for sale -
Hi all, I’m restoring my 2.8i Capri and fitting a new fuel tank which means I have a perfectly usable used tank for sale. Other than cosmetic scratches and scuffs, this would make a perfect alternative to a new tank for someone looking forward a used tank for a fraction of the price. It was only rem...

2 tone paint 2.8i
Hi, I’m restoring an early 2.8i 4 speed. It’s an original grey/silver 2 tone and I’d really like to find out where the silver paint meets the grey paint in respect of the door shuts? I’d like to keep things as accurate as possible. Currently it’s a bit scruffy after a mediocre resto years ago so can...

Re: 3.0 Ghia - Problems
Hi,
Just picked-up this thread so forgive me if you’re sorted. If not, I’d suggest you Speak to Secialised engines in Essex. There’s nothing these guys don’t know about the Essex V6. Always found them really knowledgeable and helpful. I’m sure they’ll be able to help or advise.
Cheers
Paul

1979 3.0 Manifold to exhaust flange
Hi, anybody know where I can lay my hands on a 3.0 mk3 manifold to exhaust flange? It's the cast iron one that has hole centres @ 75mm. I'm struggling to get a hold of one and it's the last piece of the puzzle! It broke when I took it off. AAArgh.

Re: Capri 3.0 Ghia Auto For Sale Oyster Gold
Hi, the weather is looking ok for Wednesday. Let's chat again on Monday to make sure it's looking dry (ish). I can then confirm. I'll be there in the evening, sometime around 5pm. Be good to see the MK2 and see what you think of the MK3 as it is now.
