Here is my 1984 Mercury Capri RS 5.0 5 speed. I found it beat to hell in back of a barn outside of Oklahoma City and have had it since 2003.

The only part of the body that I have changed from stock is to paint the hood louvers black and add Saleen wheels. I have a set of ground effects without any logos that are ready to be put on once the new engine is tuned. Any one have any ideas for paint colors? Maybe I'll just leave it in primer...

Here are some pics of the tired 302 that came with the car.

I ended up degreasing the engine and selling it for $250. jgrono's 1984 Mercury Capri

Have been looking for the late year Mercs with either white or black top paint and the silver and orange on the bottom, absolutely a sweet car. Good luck with the hunting!
