Description

For Sale. 1984 Mercury Capri, .0 V8, speed manual transmission. This year Capri is the same mechanically as the Mustang. I bought this car about three years ago from a Capri collector in Oregon. I have been building this car to be competitive regionally in SCCA Solo (autocross). During the build my fiance and I decided we would like to get out of debt and I chose to sell my daily driver. Because of this the Capri became my daily driver and I had to stop with some of the more aggressive parts of the build and ease up on the spending. I am selling the car because I need something a bit more practical.
The good:
- I drive this car every day and have been for almost a year. It runs and drives very well.
- 1 year old Maximum Motorsports road and track box (less the shocks pictured). ($2600)
- The rear end has been converted to a 3 link set up /wMaximumMotorsport Torque-arm kit.
- The rear end is a freshly rebuilt Ford 8.8 /w 3.27 gears, resh Tru-Trac, ew axles from NorthwestDifferentials ($1650).
- All suspension and most steering parts replaced or upgraded.
- Previous owner claims the engine was rebuilt and transmission was resealed. Engine appears to be all stock, ossibly a "rv" cam. Runs good. Clutch grabs well.
- New high torque starter
- Newer Holly carb
- New tires, ontinental Extreme Contact, ess then 2,000 miles ($500).
- Body pretty strait and rust free.
- Many other new parts, have a large stack of invoices of most the work I have done since I have owned the car.
The bad:
- Needs an inner tie rod and a u-joint
- Interior isn't so pretty, un faded seats and trim, racked dash, nd missing the cloth for the headliner
- Exterior needs paint, ome trim items, nd has a cracked valance.
Car is being sold as-is.
