Check out this Ford Capri that belongs to Glenn Thorpe (@pintopunter on Instagram)! 😃
Once upon a time this Capri was heavily modified with a bonnet scoop, a side pipe exhaust system, and a very unique interior ('a sorry customised mess' in Glenn's words 😃). (see the last 2 pics)
Glenn bought the Capri last year and since then he has been returning the car to a more OEM+ look. The car is now sitting on a set of 'minilite' alloys and the correct grill and bumpers have been fitted which defo make the car look way more smart. The cockpit is now a much nicer place to be with what I THINK is a 2.0S interior, the red stripes on the seats and door cards certainly match the colour scheme of the exterior very well.
One thing that Glenn has decided to keep from this Capri's crazy past though, is the 302 cubic inch 'Windsor' V8 lump in the engine bay! A lot of people say that the Capri should have come with a V8 from the factory so this car is defo an example of what could have been.
Glenn has a long history with old skool Fords, and you can check out some of his old cars on his Instagram @pintopunter.
Thanks for getting in touch Glenn! 👍
