I'd be very proud of that car, I'm a sucker for all the older copper/bronze and burnt orange variants. This car looks beautiful. Luke will get plenty of well deserved attention this summer.
Nice job Steve :cool:

Hi Steve,

Wow ! What a beautiful Capri mate. You must be very proud when you turn out all these stunning Capri's mate. You really do restoration to an extremely high standard. Keep up the fantastic work and keep the pictures coming :)

Jeepers if I were Luke I dont think I would be able to sleep tonight. Looks like a lovely day tomorro too...well in the South anyway so hopefully Luke will have a great "collection drive"! As "andyonthejob" has already said he better be prepared for loads of attention...especially with that wonderful paint job....

Nice one Steve

All the best
