As the owner of 5 Capris from mid 70s up until the late 80s and still love them today i have to say this is a really fantastic restored example. Credit to the owner.
I love this bringing life to a classic sports ford that my kids will be able to appriciate at shows etc,so important that people with the skills find these.brilliant
What a great restoration, well done chaps. I'll admit, I'm an old fart, and back in the early 80's I never really liked Capri's, and thought them a bit too much like an English muscle wanna-be car. I did have 11 Mk2 Escorts, and a couple of Mk1's though, which were more my thing. But, that said, what you have done with this is simply amazing, credit to you.
I was mad for Capris, had 7 in all, your taste in restoring this car is absolutely perfect, what an amazing job, I wasn’t sure in the yellow at the beginning but what a perfect choice, well done to all involved, my favourite one I owned was a silver 3 litre S, such beautiful cars 😊
In 1986 I had a identical 3.0s on an S plate early mk3 like this same colour , brown fishnet recaros only had rs alloys on but I think it had the 205 tyres on of the 2.8 Capri loved it had a few 3 litre capri s and 2.8 ,s too , lovely job trip down memory lane watching this Good stuff Cheers guys .
Utterly beautiful, what a magnificent job you've done, take a bow lads. I owned 3 when I was younger & I loved them all, this filled me with nostalgia & hit me in the solar plexus
A friend of mine has exactly the same front spoiler on his 2.3S as well as fishnet recaros. I totally understand everyone who has't bought an ultimate Capri wants to have the best parts on his car. To me this is a tasteful MK3. Most importantly it is your car and you like it this way. Thanks for sharing it with us. Bye from Prague Ford Club CI5
That’s one iconic car.The rust battle finished most of these beautiful cars off.Seen lots of these on the road in 90s and they were fast then never mind the 80s
Has a 73 capri I 2600cc. Was very fun! Only had the 2 barrel carb and 3 speed manuel tranny. But still a blast to drive. Wanted to bore out to 3.0 and fuel inj. Also 5 speed manuel! Loved that car! I liked how the air vents would adjust right where you wanted then just dial open or close.
A piece of art 👍🏻 Also giving u huge credit to restore this beauty ! But d big rear spoiler looks real strange n ruins d overall appearance... I would much prefer d original rear spoiler
Lovely build. A video would have been nice at the end simply to hear it and see it drive but i personally would bin the rear spoiler and fit an original. Personal taste.
Yep. Should have kept my immaculate 1980 red 3.0S back in the day 😫😁 This was a great restomod and I love the signal amber contrasting with the black 👍😎
Had a few 3.0s,and a 2.8 and loved them all ,one had an X pack body kit fitted and boy did it get some looks but anyways loved your vid great work look after her.
Great job, great colour. Second favourite - mine is Peppermint Green. I'm still restoring it though, putting in a Jag S-type engine. Can't get those 3 liters here, we got the 2.8i but with a five-speeder. Looking excellent and one of my fav cars. Would have loved to hear the sound though.
Can't be, I do not have FB, there must be some other weirdo that likes peppermint green! When I finish the car I'll put up a video on YT, but that will take time. First I have to fix my Fiat 500 (1976) and the X1/9 (1977). I have a lot of cars.
Had about 20 of various guises some quite rare. Mk1 3000e manual was one. Had same colour and car as this. XNJ 282S. Last seen around 1987 in Lancing sussex. Lovely cars.
Such a Fantastic car, What a Great Restoration job, I love this video so much, Thank you ever so much for sharing this beauty, I also love the music you used in the video (would love to know what it is), thanks a lot
I admire the time and effort you must have put into the restoration mate, love the triple Webers, my only criticism is the boot spoiler, what were you thinking ? Absolutely ruins the car, little subtle one would have finished it off lovely.
1 day every poor sod wil be driving battery powered euro boxes of shite 😢...... im so glad I was born in a time when real cars were on the roads ... fantastic Capri 😍👌🏽
All that hard work and brought back to a lovely standard and you stick them tacky looking wheels on it . I’d have kept the originals looks miles better
Hahahah! .... Fantastic My Friend! ... I loved the sincerity! ... I have already made the comment for some time! ... but in fact at least it seemed to me! ... Only Denotes being an Honest, sincere Person and a Professional without Price! ... Thank You My Friend ... Very Success for you.
The design brings to shame the efforts of new designers who achieve striking results resorting to a myriad of complicated straight edges angles and creases and fail to come anywhere close to what a MASTER could do with a single ontinuous gently curving g sloping line such as that right there.
SO pleased that there are people like you out there who breathe new life into these classics. What an amazing car now!🇬🇧👍😎

You've got to love the Ford Capri, a classy beautiful car.
Such a sexy car far nicer than any new ones these days !
Beautiful capri, the workmanship is better than when it left the factory
One of my favourite classical cars and in my favourite colour too!
2022 , THE BEST CAPRI I HAVE SEEN. 62 years, Ive seen a few. Up to buy it Cash $ !
Signal Amber cars always looked special on the road, back in the day, and still looks fab now :)
Stunning car very well done the old ford cars were so good used to work on them had two capris
I'm envious. I wish we had these in North America .
I love this bringing life to a classic sports ford that my kids will be able to appriciate at shows etc,so important that people with the skills find these.brilliant
Looks great, love the colour and the black alloys. Only thing I would say is get rid of the spoiler and fit the original
completely back to std now, inc engine
@Duke the meister i sold it
Yr absolutely right...
A period color brings it really up a notch.
Maybe seen for real the spoiler ‘grows’ on me🙏🏽 lol
Great job!! Another Ford, restored.. Thumbs up!
RAS 604S was the registration of our Capri in 1986. nice car, yellow with Black vinyl roof and rear spoiler.

I still got my Capri III 2.3-V6 from 1979 in good shape!
It is my first car.
what a car still one of the best looking cars ever made, loved my 3.1
Utterly beautiful, what a magnificent job you've done, take a bow lads. I owned 3 when I was younger & I loved them all, this filled me with nostalgia & hit me in the solar plexus
cheers ian , keep the dream alive
A pleasure, I can't praise you highly enough
Top job looks beautiful they way it should have been, always had a soft spot for the capri
Not usually a fan of color changes but this one really works , the trunk wing is hideous though, nice job all in all
Greetings from Ireland...what a beautiful car...full credit to you. Would love one in Venetian red,a Ford colour from late seventies
That looks like a very solid shell to be starting with came out looking good
Man what a beautiful job well done shes looking beautiful hats off to you 👏👍

MJ RACING Noted, good day n🍷 cheers...
What a car what a restoration 😍 i have one 1978 these things are priceless ❤️ They look dope on roads
Beautiful car, always loved the 3.0S.....i would have gone without the Euro style number plates though.....
My dream car when I was 17! Still great now. Fantastic job!
Lovely build. A video would have been nice at the end simply to hear it and see it drive but i personally would bin the rear spoiler and fit an original. Personal taste.

Great job, great colour. Second favourite - mine is Peppermint Green. I'm still restoring it though, putting in a Jag S-type engine.
Can't get those 3 liters here, we got the 2.8i but with a five-speeder. Looking excellent and one of my fav cars.
Would have loved to hear the sound though.

Can't be, I do not have FB, there must be some other weirdo that likes peppermint green!

First I have to fix my Fiat 500 (1976) and the X1/9 (1977). I have a lot of cars.
Nice job.... A beautiful car.... Brings back memories..

Great car , great music . Wots not to like 👌🏼

Lovely Capri. I much prefer the 3.0S over the 2.8.
What's the music BTW?
the spoiler spoilt it.
Sorry for Observation and sincerity! ... but I get the feeling that the license plate is slightly crooked ... will it be my impression?
fixed
