I like the ghia alloys. Not alot use them but they look the part. Much better than 4 spokes I reckon.
I also like the paint job for some reason. Looks like a proper muscle car.
Plans have changed to just make a good fun Track Car
Hi Will01, please let me know that you mean the Capri now back to diamond white and not as I got her with the black front lol. And ghia alloys going on soon. Off on holiday today so it will have to wait for me to get back

I think what you have done to the car is very impressive and looks great.
But I hate to admit it the black and white picture with black front end looks really cool. Retro muscle look.
I know the black front looks silly, but there is something about it. Pretty sure I saw the same car advertised a few years ago??
Saying all that the car does look much better as it does now.

Oh god. Red headlamp bezels!!!
That looks bad. The red pin stripe terrible. If it was just black and the bumpers were black not orange it would have looked much better
Saying that the look now does still.look better still

Will01, the bumpers were rusty and not orange. I'm looking back at first photos thinking wow she's come along way, thanks everyone for your kind comments.
Now I won't be commenting on any post for the next week ( not that my comments make sense or are of any importance lol )
