🔧 BUILD Nate's 86 Capri, the barn kitty

[Carnutz]

Moar!!When will this be available for sale!?

 

[Sprayin]

Damn I'm so jealous right now. I haven't had the motivation to touch mine the past 2 months with the 100-120* heat here, but I'm about to get back into it. Wish mine looked as good!

 

[FESTER665]

Any chance those rear quarter windows fit in a 87-93 hatchback? I'm kinda liking those better than the stock foxbody ones, especially since I'll end up needing to buy aftermarket ones anyway because OEM ones would cost more than the car itself nowadays.

Doug you can find them, you just have to look! I also know plenty of guys who will sell you a set of mint 87-93's for a fair deal esp being a hatch

It takes time man, now that it's home I still have a ton of work to do! ...like the heater core I so conveniently forgot about lol

Most likely never. I sold one this year so I've met my quota. Will also keep just to spite my wife who hates this thing

 

[Pressure Ratio]

Fuck leaking heater cores in Foxbody cars. lol

I'll be sure to hit you up when Im buying all the trim stuff for the exterior....

I still need to get the clutch quadrant, firewall adjuster, and coil over to you one of these days, hope you werent in a rush.

My heater core wasnt leaking but since I have the dash apart to hide wires behind it I bought a new one to toss in there just as a precaution.

For real, mine needs to be done too and I'm in AZ so I'm considering just saying fuck it and not doing it.

 

[FESTER665]

I'm thinking about having mine modified to have AN fittings on it and doing braided lines instead of the coolant tubes and trying to figure all that BS out with the new setup.

Likely wont even hook the shit up since it's not like I'll be driving it in the winter anyway.

Been a few years since I updated this. Added a mclaren spoiler, went a little crazy on the wiring and added a ford racing EFI harness, rebuilt the 3550 with carbon rings, and ported the intake.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

FINALLY!

What a rad looking car

 

[cap42]

Man always loved these bubble hatch cars

 

[Nate]

I’m gonna pay homage to Pressure Ratio and add a t trim and a dark block. All hail 2001

 

[Jeffs FRC]

Stop being a Ford fanboi and put an LS in the damn thing.
