86 Capri- Original Documentation

[OX1]

Not too much I didn't keep. Was asked for my full build sheet.
Figured some might enjoy it, post up everything I have.

If anyone knows where I can get the Capri owners manual, would love to
have it vs the mustang one.

Wow this is cool documentation. Was the Capri your first new car? That's always such a special feeling, buying a new car

Very nice documentation. Every now and then a `86 Capri owners manual will show up on ebay.

Yes. Crapload of memories in that car. Everything from first time driving on gatorbacks in the snow going skiing, racing my buddies (classic) hemi cuda over the Driscoll bridge, to some fun in other than the front seats, LOL!!

I was looking at a 86 white Mustang LX 5.0, but they didn't want to deal on price since it was a Stang.
(it also didn't have nicer seats, PW, sunroof or even console IIRC, and of course was not a GT).

Mercury dealer had 3, 5.0 Capri's in the back of the lot, "sunk" down in the mud (and front spoilers not even on yet, since they came in the hatch area I assume). No one wanted them. Wish I had taken a pic of all 3 of them. I actually got Capri for almost same price they wanted for 5.0 LX.

WOW!! Crazy amount of info Thanks!! Even the specific springs on suspension.

Very nice documentation. Every now and then a `86 Capri owners manual will show up on ebay.

Thanks. Will keep and eye out. I was promised one by my Merc dealer, but they never followed through (and neither did I).

"Accent Stripe, Type/Color - R1 = Medium Charcoal "Capri RS" hatch decal"

Do have a question. Was this something they carried over from earlier Capri build sheets?
I have no RS badges/decals. Thought it was Canada only on 85/86's

You are correct. Should be a plastic-chromed "Capri" badge on the left side of the hatchback liftgate. No sticker.
