I am looking into purchasing this vehicle. Its got a 351 with a performer intake and edelbrock 600cfm carb with long tube headers and flowmasters. Its a 5 speed with a 3.55 posi 8.8. is this something worthwhile if the body is in ok shape? sorry this is my first post and i just love these foxbody's and this is the only one around in my price range.

How much is the seller asking? If the car is in good shape with minimal rust and such it should be a nice car.Make sure you check things like the torque boxes and stuff to.

check the floors, strut towers, an torque boxes (if you can). if its solid an a fair price I'd jump on it. clean four eyed cars are getting hard to find, an I always liked the look of the capri, now they really stand out.
