Just picked this 86 capri GS up for 400. 4cyl 4spd manual. pwr locks and windows. PERFECT INTERIOR (except the headliner in the rear) sunroof (with storage bag) Its red with a little rust in the quarters. 157,000 miles. I think i did pretty good. Cant wait to get a 5.0 in it...well lemme know what you all think...

Wow...these days buying a Capri shell for 400 bucks is a good deal. You made out like a bandit.

my vote (if you're taking votes, that is) is a 351W , it just seems right in a Capri.

well, i already have a 302 block, rebuilt heads, a summit rebuild kit and a t5 tranny and bellhousing. so i'll probably go with that, 2" drop, 17's and some flat black treatment. I have plenty of time to think about. I already have oo many projects going. but oh well i couldn't pass it up.. they were askin $700, which i thought was even a good price. When i offered $400 she didn't even think about it she just handed me the keys... so i probably could of got for $350, but hine-sight is 20/20

are these pics workin i noticed they all say "0 views"

i posted 5 pics

Nice find. In that condition i have to consider that a major SCORE! Capri's make awsome rides and i think they are just too cool. Check out www.foureyedpride.com and the forums there for some good info on production #'s and more. They even have a forum just for capris. Very nice!
