    Great work!! I agree, it's awesome when these rare cars get brought back to their former glory. It's gonna look great when finished.

    I was impressed with the picture of it on its roof in the garage. How did you do that?
    edit:
    Nevermind, I see the feet of the rotisserie. Wish I could rent one of those.

    I'm going to shoot off a guess that they used a rotisserie, something similar to this: http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=CONTENT

    That car is gonna be -PIMP-.

    Love the attention to the under-carriage. Is it a special epoxy paint?

    Thats one very lucky Capri RS-T!
