Seems there is a few owners on here after a look around.
I have a 1983 Ford Capri 2.8i that I thought I would share, I bought it back in January 2005 as my first car about 5 months before passing my driving test, had great fun in it.
Some pics from way back then-

To cut a long story short it was taken off the road back in October 2009 as corrosion was starting to set in, but was not severe & a minor bump meaning it needed 3 new panels was a push to do something about it. The car sat for close to 2 years collecting bird poo until I got space to work on it.
Finally got it under a roof to work on it-

Then work began-

Until the corrosion was all gone!

Then I got carried away-

And started stripping & painting everything -

Bits got shiny-

Bits got zinc plated -

And everything got very clean -

Then something more serious arrived-

This caused other bits to get larger & stiffer (ooo-errr!) -

Memories of the good old days, when things had pushrods -

Now due to the moving in of three extra camshafts and their 12 additional valve friends there is no more space for poor Mr Battery -
