Picked up an '85 Capri RS 5spd... I paid for her on my way out of town and the wife brought her home yesterday. I won't make it home for a few more days but I can't wait to get to know her.

Yeah I will be home I believe on the 22nd. There will be MANY pics. The condition is amazing for its age. I bought my first capri before I knew much about the mechanics of the different years and was a little bummed to find I had a non roller. Then even more bummed when I started finding all the damaged areas. (bent radiator support, ripped off sway bar mounts, massive holes cut into hood, rust, silicone all over hatch, cheap paint job etc...) so when I found this one I was delighted to find nothing of the sort. I must give credit to my first capri though as she has been a daily driver since 2007 when I bought her and never let me down.

Thanks I could not figure out how to get it bigger as I am posting with my phone and not everything works right. But it does get bigger when you click it I think.Nice score but I think it deserves a bigger picture

Quick update. Confirmed today that my new Capri came with this under the air cleaner...
