This lady we bought the car from claims the wheels are original, Its a late 82 capri gs, 302 h.o. 4 speed, so why does it have these predator wheels? Thanks!

the car could have been bought by someone like my neighbor. he worked at a ford dealer. refused to buy his mustang unless they put the cobra rims on it, which they happily obliged. he also prefered mercury over ford. had a 2 door grand marquis, always telling me what a rare car it was. i was a little too young though. i didn't get it.
does it have a wooden shift knob as well?

i have a 1992 GT, 4.10, 5spd.
It doesnt have wooden shoft knob. And the valve covers are alluminum powered by ford valve covers. It also has this odd bar on the rearend. Whats this for?
Those look like traction bars on the rear end. They were used before the quad shocks took over. I've never heard of a predator Capri, and my guess would be that if one existed it would have more than just the same wheels. Maybe the seller was telling a tall tale or maybe those wheels were a dealer add on. What dsO is your car from?
It's an awesome Capri nonetheless, but I doubt it's related to the predator (but what do I know).

They made 1 predator capri, per mr. Chris lott later year 84?
They built one '84 Predator Capri in red.
If they are genuine Shelby/Predator wheels, there would be some interest in them here by the Predators owners. But please, not offers to sell of buy in this forum. Use the classifieds or go directly to private messages. Thanks.
