    That's awsome man, who's better than you? I just think it needs a spolier on the back, or different tail lights, it just doesn't look right with the capri hatch and mustang tails with no spoiler.

      Id like to getvthe reproduction asc spoiler for it but that is more money. Thanx for the compliment on the work. Maybe a mustang hatch one day. Just gotta find one in good shape.

          Looks good. The Capri's look good in orange and black.

            I always personally liked the Capri tails better than Mustang ones. Just different enough to be cool. Paint looks good.

                The paint looks good. Get rid of the "Bubble-top" hatch. Does the car have a 5.0L motor?

                    It is a 5.0L now. Was a 2.3 when I got it. Not really on the door jambs. Maybe later. The bubble stays. More downforce than the stang hatch from what Im told.

                              I think the bubble hatch is ugly, but at least you can say you have a real Capri, not a Caprang. Nothing against Mustangs, but it bugs the FUCK out of me when people try to modify cars to look normal. Keep the Capri hatch- no one else in your area has it, I'm sure.

                              Paint looks great- how'd you spray it? Did you build a paint booth?
