S> Ford Capri 2.1 Laser (sold)

Post by system11 »

My ex runabout has to find a new home now due to the garage being given up to the new 2.8. First things first, the car isn't concourse, but it's in pretty good shape and perfect for a daily driver. Mileage is unknown, when I bought it the owner had just put a new engine in, as the car started life as a 1.6. It now has a 2.0 Pinto pulled out of a stock car and rebuilt, but it's bored out to 2.1 and has a fast road cam. Head was from a Sierra so no unleaded problems here.

The good:
Bodywork is generally not bad, very solid underside, strut tops, etc.
Engine isn't leaking - a Capri first!
Gearbox is spot on, clutch was new when I got it.
2.8 shark grey interior
12 months MOT (straight through today) and will come with 6 months tax
Recently (within 1k miles):
* new tyres all round
* reconditioned calipers from Burton, plus pads
* brake shoes (last weekend)
* K&N air filter
* silly blue set of plug leads, rotor arm & cap, and coil

Bad:
A couple of small dents, several areas have been resprayed, laser decals one side incomplete.
Front driver side wing is pattern, was dented too and repaired. Some lacquer peeling on passenger door.
A few rust spots, one near the bottom of the drivers door, some near one rear arch, a bit on the bonnet edge.
No stereo or speakers, but wiring exists for them and I can show the buyer which wires are which at the dash, was going to fit mate-n-lok connectors to make it easier but never got around to it.

It'll be going up on ebay once I've asked people who know what money I should be looking for, until then offers considered. I'm not looking for a kings ransom but I'm not giving it away for tuppence either.
