1982 capri!!!

[STANGMAN116]

Hello out there i wanted to show everyone another car i picked up recently! This was my 1st capri/mustang i owned in 2003, i bought from a guy and drove for a few years and loved. But in 2013-14 i had to sell the car when times kinda got tough. Well i kinda kept track of the car thru years and found out a friend of a friend bought the car, didnt know it was being sold, after some convincing i was able to make a deal before she got turned into a race car. I was able to bring her home this past weekend!!
This 1st pic was back in 2003-4 with the car in the background with my daughter in the red dress who is almost 17 now.

How she currently is:


Its really cool to have my 1st car back!!!

Congratulations! I found my first car several years back. Sadly it was in really bad shape but I could have bought it back. I wish now I had and just worked on it over time to at least get it to driver status.
What are your plans for the car?

Congrats on getting your first car back. It still looks to be in great condition. I would love to get my first Capri back. Haven't seen it since I got rid of it in 1991.

There you go Fidel! Love it!

Theres something special about a first car.

Found where mine was - haven’t settled on if I’ll go after it.

Ya looks almost exactly the same, unfortunately the drivetrain is gone. But the guy i got it from got it to pass smog before he sold it to me and now i can get classic plates for it. So im deciding on drivetrain now

That is a sweet reunion! Glad to see a happy ending to parting ways with a car.

Glad you got it back. Sucks how people always yanjk the drive train. Looking forward to see what you choose for it.

Thanks everyone!!! Im very excited and yes Trey the memories if the car could talk... hahaha. Ya he did yank the drivetrain but to save a black magic. Soooooo sucks but a good save for him and i saved my from roll cage and uncertainty. Although he does good work and would have taken good care of it.
