SUMMARY
A superbly restored trophy-winning Ford Capri 2.8 Injection awaiting its next custodian.
DESCRIPTION
- Beautifully presented in Graphite Grey over Strato Silver with matching Grey 'Carla' fabric interior, this early 4-speed Ford Capri 2.8 Injection has benefited from a comprehensive rebuild in recent years completed by a marque specialist to a superb level
- Nothing remained untouched from the exterior, superbly refinished by Classic Dreamworks to the interior, engine bay, underpinnings and beyond with the attention to detail needing to be seen to be fully appreciated
- With minimal mileage covered since returning to the road, this increasingly desirable Capri presents in excellent condition throughout
- It's accompanied by an impressive history file that includes a photographic record of the rebuild, numerous bills and invoices, previous MOT Certificates and associated ephemera
- The 2.8 Injection was one of the most sought after production Capris of the 1980s and this superb early example is now ready for the show circuit or to be used out on the open road as originally intended. Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the opportunity on offer
