For Sale. 1984 Mercury Capri, 5.0 V8, 5 speed manual transmission. This year Capri is the same mechanically as the Mustang. I bought this car about three years ago from a Capri collector in Oregon. I have been building this car to be competitive regionally in SCCA Solo (autocross). During the build my fiance and I decided we would like to get out of debt and I chose to sell my daily driver. Because of this the Capri became my daily driver and I had to stop with some of the more aggressive parts of the build and ease up on the spending. I am selling the car because I need something a bit more practical. The good:- I drive this car every day and have been for almost a year. It runs and drives very well.- 1 year old Maximum Motorsports road and track box (less the shocks pictured). ($2600)- The rear end has been converted to a 3 link set up /w Maximum Motorsport Torque-arm kit.- The rear end is a freshly rebuilt Ford 8.8 /w 3.27 gears, fresh Tru-Trac, new axles from Northwest Differentials ($1650) .- All suspension and most steering parts replaced or upgraded. - Previous owner claims the engine was rebuilt and transmission was resealed. Engine appears to be all stock, possibly a "rv" cam. Runs good. Clutch grabs well.- New high torque starter- Newer Holly carb - New tires, Continental Extreme Contact, less then 2,000 miles ($500). - Body pretty strait and rust free. - Many other new parts, I have a large stack of invoices of most the work I have done since I have owned the car. The bad:- Needs an inner tie rod and a u-joint- Interior isn't so pretty, sun faded seats and trim, cracked dash, and missing the cloth for the headliner- Exterior needs paint, some trim items, and has a cracked valance. Car is being sold as-is.
