Trade for an 85 asc/McLaren vert roller? Will throw in the original 3 boxes of CFI wiring for free:bigthumb .

Seriously, I like this car, let's talk.

The A/C should work fine I put 134A in it last summer. No leaks on the driveway either.

Speed density "engine control", or has it been upgraded to mass air?

There is no mass air meter in the engine picture.

That's what I "saw" also from the engine pic, but wanted seller to confirm.

Still has speed density. Runs and drives good. Could use a front end alignment though. I will adjust price if I keep the Pony wheels.

just what he needs, soft spot or no, another project car. have sent way to many of those out the garage doors. :) he (the hubby) needs to get my project car done before he can get himself one.

they are sweet though. especially when not in pretzel shape. :D

:lol: ya know, i'd love for hubby to be able to have it. i know how much they mean to him. has quite the soft spot for them. BUT, we have a two car garage...one side is mine for Matilda, the other is his for the Cobra. If we lived somewhere else, I'd say for him to go for it. BUT, not happening. Not until mines done at least. If it works for motorvation then I'll deal with that when the time comes. I'm just praying like hell someone else picks up this car first!! :D Nice try though! :bigthumb

Nice meeting you!! Next time I'll give you more money to hush about this!! :cool2:

BUMP for a great car that hubby does NOT need!! PLEASE!

MrsAPE, I'd love to buy the Capri, it would be close by :)

8NO4CYL, that rust spot on the LF fender only spot or more?

8NO4CYL
06-27-2007, 05:33 AM
It has rust on the driver's quarter and various other spots that are beginning to bubble. The rust on the body is really the only downfall to the car.
