I figured it's been quite awhile since I updated you all on my Capri. Since it's cooling down for a coolant flush I figured I would have enough time to type out a few lines and pound some images into your retinas. Updates that I have not taken pictures of are a MBC, gauge, and un-pictured new tires. Thankfully cops aren't on my ass about inspection around here; staties would nail me though. That's getting done tomorrow! I did take apart the headlight motor and it worked for a few weeks until it stopped one night. My guess is I used industrial heavy equipment grease instead of a conductive kind? I am hoping, and what are my options for gauge mounting? I scored a sweet Auto meter off of eBay for $25 and got her hooked up yesterday.

Looking for that Rocketchip Rocketman  ;D
Feast your eyes upon this beaut.







Drove her 75 miles on all four rubbers looking like this  :-X




She has that war-torn look to her in my opinion.














Now for the underside which I'm very surprised is as nice as it is for having 139,xxx and being in lovely PA.







Trackerrrr:
Good score for $600. You should plan on replacing those hard brake lines when you do the rubber ones, they'll never come off without twisting in two with that corrosion.

Looks good for PA.

Just replaced the fuel filter, a thermostat, radiator cap, and a temperature switch in hopes of having heat. Haven't had time to test completely.

jdp:
The levers that control the blender box and heat are plastic and tend to break.   You might want to check those out if you are not getting heat.
