    Very Nice Capri! Obviously with some subtle modifications such as 5 lug wheels and brakes. Spend some time with the Capri and I seriously doubt you will want to trade it away. Good clean Capri's especially T-tops are getting harder to find every day! Good Luck!

    I have most of the smog stuff off a '92 5.0 that you can have if you want it. I don't have emissions in my area, so I took everything off (smog pump, vacuum lines, etc.). I am just over the Oregon border about 30 miles.

    Congrats on the purchase. The car looks great. Don't know if I could let that go.

    Very sharp Capri . I agree with the others , Capris are getting harder to find especially in good condition. Can you post up interior pics and engine bay? Any mods besides the 5 lug swap?

    I don't think I've ever liked those charcoal insert Cobra wheels on any car I've seen them on....until now. Odd. Seems like they work pretty well here and the fit/offeset seems spot on. Looks like a nice ride from what I can see. They are fun.
