I'll add the full story to this next week when I can find what I have done with it on my PC at work :D

For now, here's the link to my friends website showing the highlights of the work we did from April 2015 thru to August 2016.

That is very nice indeed. When someone suggests you go for a drive, do you jump up and shout "lets doo-ooo it!" I hope you have done that at least once.

Back at the end of July, I was asked if my Capri could be used for a photoshoot & write up in Classic Car Mart, thought it rude not to. October issue out today & not only is the story / write up really good, even made the front cover, proper chuffed 8-)

Hi,
That's brilliant, and it's a testament to all the hard work that you've put into the car.
Nice one!

Hi,
I've just realised that I saw your car at the CCI National. I had a good look over it, and what a stunner it was. Very nice indeed.
