PR_Capri's 1971 Ford Capri

 

Hi all..

This is my 1971 GT Capri....I have loaded the first picture for you to see the original state, and the condition of the car was b4 re-pulled apart... 

The Capri will be going back to the Original Colour of WILD-VIOLET..mmm.. still thinking though :).. As i may make it just a little darker to the plum look to take away the "wild" side...lol.. I have been looking for a wild vilot car to sus out the vibrant look.. (not just a pix..lol) as it really doesnt show what i would like to see..

I hope to whom ever see's this, will enjoy the jurney of the rebuild (painting) and a few mod's..Oh yeah and dont for get the NEW MOTOR.. this will be shown at a later date.. as spending some more for the crome and polishing a bit...

 

 

 

 

The paint is now all stipped...

This was done as the paint was going all grazy. The rest of picture is the stages of where i am at & will be up dating them as we go...

the car only had a little rust hole in floor, cant see this as it has been fixed and tided up... there is nil rust through out...

the Final part now is to strip and clean engine bay b4 i take all the etch primer all off and re do all to rub and do the final color finish...

Five stars for effort, take a look at Fords latest paint called Panther black, up close it has millions of tiny sparkles that catch the rainbow spectrum in the sunshine yet from a few steps away and it is glossy jet black. I also like Wild Violet but this new Ford paint is amazing!, good luck with your project.
