1980 FORD CAPRI 1.6 GL AUTO For Sale by Auction

Offered for sale by Barons Classic Car Auctioneers via a live online and attended auction at 3. 00pm on Friday 27th January at Barons, Unit 6, Harbour Close, Cracknore Industrial Park, Southampton SO40 4AF. Viewing from Monday 16th January to Friday 27 January. Office Hours 9. 00am to 5pm Monday to Friday and 10. 00am till 2. 00pm Saturday 21st January the details below.

This 1980 Ford Capri Mk3 1. 6 GL Automatic is finished in Solar Gold with a Bitter Chocolate cloth interior. The vendor purchased the car in September 2019 and is the 7th owner, and it has only covered 61, 440 miles in total. The car has a service book showing regular servicing from new through to 37, 000 miles in 1996. The MoT certificates date from November 1994 to June 2012, and then from June 2018 to June 2020, confirming the mileage. The car was in storage from 2012 to 2018, during which time it had undergone renovation and recommissioning to get it back on the road, which included welding of the front wings and a full respray. The timing belt was replaced in October 2018, and the original carburettor was replaced with a Weber 34 ICH/ ICT. The car is now registered as Historic class and is exempt from an MoT and road tax. The V5 is present, and MoT history, service history, and receipts for work carried out during the vendor’s ownership are included in the sale.

The car is an automatic, which the vendor states works perfectly. The body work looks nice and straight, all the gaps are good, but some refurbishment is required. It is clean under the bonnet and in the boot, the interior is very nice, with good seats and carpets with recent new floor mats. It also appears very solid underneath, with the sills looking good. The heated rear window is not working but is never really needed, the rear window wiper works. The dashboard is in fair condition but does have slight cracking as is usual with these cars. The radio cassette functions as an FM radio, however the cassette does not function.

The vendor has fitted a completely new exhaust with 4-2-1 exhaust manifold, electric cooling fan with thermostat control, and Ford Capri Ghia alloy wheels (5. 5J x 13”) with recent tyres in good condition and plenty of tread, new centre caps, nuts and caps. The car has been serviced, replacing oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, points, ignition leads. Also replaced are – rocker cover gasket, anti-freeze, engine thermostat, alternator and drive belt, 70Ah battery, wiper blades, fuel pump, tailgate/ boot struts, 4 x sealed beam halogen headlamps, rear brake cylinders and shoes, front brake callipers, discs and pads, complete brake fluid change and bleed, steering rack gaiters and tie rod ends. The car is said to drive well and was driven to the auction. A great starter classic.

This very early 1969 Ford Capri 1300 L entered the care of its current owner in 2017, carrying with it a dream that began with a young enthusiast's ambition in Oxford. Originally intended for a V8 upgrade that never materialized, the car arrived in a sorry state, its wings corroded with neglect. Despite this, the underpinnings ...

Here is a chance to purchase a project that is quite unusual. Not only is this Ford Capri very solid, but it has also been 'fitted' with a later BMW V12. We're not entirely sure why someone decided to cram a V12 engine and auto gearbox into the front of this Capri, but it definitely makes for something just a little bit ...

Mk1 Capri 1.6 GT Cross flow engine, 4 speed manual. 9+ previous keepers but it is 51 years old. Mileage appears to be correct at 72k but there is no way of confirming, when you hear the engine, you will probably agree with me that either the engine has been overhauled or its original and well looked after. 6 pot ...
