The Ford Capri Laser Page

Hello, just got this today, really happy with it,







comments welcome, i hope u all like it.

Paul.

Looks good to me

Is that Stratos Silver or Crtystal Green?

Looks in decent shape.

Didn't think they came with rear Wash/wipe, so I wonder if that was a 2litre option?
Mine was a 1600 and had steel rather than the four spokes.

Looking good. Has it still got the original interior? If you want to keep it A1, don't let sun get on the rear seat tops- they'll go pink.

its crystal green, all standard,

ill just tidy it up and tidy the engine bay up, i do like the idea of a side exit exhaust though

Lovely, 4 speed? if so could maybe have a type E under there

hi paul, nice cappa, remember seeing that an fle bay, especally as the reg no is DL which means it was registerd on the Isle of Wight, where i was born and bread, bit od uselss info for ya i guess

over a year since i updated this so here goes.

i have been down the scrap yard and got a 5 speed from an old lazer.

got a new parcel shelf with supports and rear seat belts



didn't like the speakers so changed it



also got a stainless exhaust from a 2.8 for £20, going to fit these to my pinto.



had a great time in the snow







waxoyled it all



also tinted the revers lights too.



the car is currently off the road, but will soon once the brakes are fixed it will becoming my everyday car

i have the 5 speed to fit, ill fit an electronic ignition, some nice pepperpots, leds dash bulbs and the twin exhaust so should be a nice car to use everyday,

thanks
