Nice car, great condition. Read carefully. He is the 3rd owner.

I see so many with no Power Locks. I wonder why? There were only like 5 options on these
Air Cond. / T-Top / Manual Pop Up Sun Roof / Automatic Tranny /
Cassette Player and Power Locks.

Since P/S and P/B and P/W were standard, and most had A/C & Cassette I always wondered why so few had Pwr. Locks. ??? Maybe they were on restriction for part of the year ? Shrug

Back in the day most people didn't trust power locks or doors. I know my dad still refuses to buy power locks/windows if he has a choice.

Very impressive. He needs a photo of the driver's seat, though.

Saw this one posted on Corral.net also. I talked to him about an SSP he was selling a while back. He's an awesome detailer. He buys, details and sells a lot of cars it seems. This one looks nice, but I'd look it over closely.

The car is originally from Ohio. The second owner kept it 20 yrs.

I have seen this car and let me say this Capri is a time capsule. A very nice original survivor !!

When I saw this car a couple of months ago. I looked at the vin # and the door tag sticker it's was built in June 86 (same as my 86 Capri) and the cun's were only 95#'s apart. I was thinking these two Capri's probably rolled down the assembly line together... Shocked
