Some cool stuff

Post by ESSEXV6ESSEX »

I have been through my paperwork and thought I would share this cool stuff with you. Some of you may have it or seen it but some may not.

That's great to have in your history file, there is some cool stuff there.

I particularly like the '81 TT race programme, if anybody is interested, photos, full entry list and results can be found here:

Pretty cool . The real value in stuff like this becomes apparent when you try to find it .......might not be a lot of ££ but of great nostalgic historical value specially if you have the car too.
This is the sort of thing that should tell a prospective buyer ( should you ever want to sell your Capri ) that you are an enthusiast and that the car is likely to be well loved .
Sometimes I talk to myself ... and we both have a good laugh

Thanks Andrew. That entry list brings them alive doesn't it. That esso Capri looks superb. I love watching Jake Hill at Goodwood - one day I hope to go. I have the poster that goes with that programme, I'll dig it out

Yep, that's exactly it. Valueless in essence as I wouldn't sell them but more the nostalgia. I'm a right geek with stuff like this, helps rewind the clock and bring those times closer which I know you shouldnt do.
