I hear you all say" not another one".

HELLO , after three years ive finally finished the resto of my 1981 3.0s in cobalt blue/black and white fishnet recaros. More or less a nut and bolt job. Obviously not had the chance to show it yet,but gets lots of interest if i take it out.I guess i will be looking to next year now for all the shows and events,unless anyone can say otherwise?
Im located in south lincs,so dont know how that fares with distances and other members?
Anyway look forward to a bit of banta, maybee meet some of you later on.

cheers Stu

Welcome in mate.

No such thing as too many Capris, and no such thing as too many Capri owners - so no one on here's going to say "oh no, not another one".
