To kind of make a long story shorter, I bought an '85 Capri RS 5.0 5spd back in 1993. It was the 1st car I ever bought and the 1st thing I ever borrowed $$ from a bank to buy. I drove it as my daily for about 3 yrs. However, after tearing up the 2nd 7.5 rear and the t-5 needing rebuilt, it sat while I got married and started a family. About 1998 a young guy offered me more money than I could pass up as a young married guy with a family and I sold it. Regretted it from the moment I watched them tow it away!
I really started to get the itch to have another one and finally after a good 2-3 yrs of looking, back in October of last year I found a really good deal on an '84 Capri RS 5.0 5spd on craigslist and made the 17hr roundtrip to scoop it up.
I'm so stoked about this thing, it's a really good starting point for a nice car!
Here are some pics from the day I loaded it up ready to head home on October 28, 2017:
