I am looking for a car to rebuild to my taste. My dilemma is what car to start from for a base. I am looking at 2 right now, those these might not be my final selection. I am partial to both.
I am planning on
- repainting to my favorite color - Orange
- redo interior gray
- full suspension upgrade - MM Motorsport maximum grip package
- 5 lug conversion with disc brakes F/R
- Axle Upgrade - 8.8 31 spline
- motor - 363 Twin turbo (already have heads, intake, turbo kit)
- 5-spd transmission upgrade
- do not want a T-top, convertible or sunroof but want 4 eyes!
1983 Capri
- running in good shape $2000. Would hate to "destroy" this one
- Could sell parts to recoup some money
- does have some minor interior and motor issues, but driveable
- Already have a 82 Capri RS, don't want to change that one.
- Love the uniqueness of a Capri
1979 Mustang Notchback
- More rough
- not running
- Like the style
- Cheap
My biggest choice is... do I spend some extra money then destroy a rare, running Capri or go with a non-running car and bring back to life.
