Thread: My 1986 Mercury Capri 5.0

  1. #1

    My 1986 Mercury Capri 5.0

    SmokinStangs - Mustang Forum! The home of the SmokinStangs Laconia - Mustang Rally
    Here are some pics of my 86' Mercury Capri 5.0
    I bought it in January of 07'

    She is in the body shop right now from an accident over the summer but I couldn't let the car die.
    I should have it back this spring and I surely miss driving her!



    First this is how it was the day I went to pick it up.









    And after a lot of clean up work.
















    Here is what the motor looked like when I bought the car.



    Tore lots apart and lots of cleaning.





    Here is what I have done to clean it up.

    I suppose I can add some ugly pics too from the crash :(

    Frame is now straight, was pushed over at least an inch plus.








    Replacement quarter acquired




    At Gene's Autobody in Manville, RI ( Awesome guys there, they loved the Capri too)




    And how we are today. Come on SPRING!
