1970 Ford Capri 1600 Mk1

1970 Ford Capri Mk1 just arrived from inland South Africa where it had been in long term enthusiast ownership.

Structurally it has seen the benefit of the hot dry climate and appears to never been welded or restored, retaining the integrity of original factory steel, very hard to find one in this condition. It was repainted many years ago and still presents well whilst the chrome is excellent.

Mechanically it runs on the original 1600cc Kent engine. We have just upgraded the ignition system with a new distributor fitted with electronic ignition and also a new starter motor. New tyres have been fitted all round.
