Highlights - Ford Capri Perana rare avec un moteur V8 de 5,0 litres - Refaçage complet du moteur effectué en 2017 par le premier propriétaire - Spécifications d'origine - Importé d'Afrique du Sud, aujourd'hui immatriculé sur des plaques du Royaume-Uni - Travaux mécaniques récents importants, notamment nouveau réservoir de carburant, carburateur et cylindre maître de frein The Appeal La Ford Capri Perana est l'une des muscle cars les plus célébrées d'Afrique du Sud, une variante au V8 rugissant de la berline européenne de Ford développée par Basil Green Motors à la fin des années 1960 et au début des années 1970. Avec environ 500 exemplaires produits, la Perana reste très recherchée par les collectionneurs du monde entier – un mélange envoûtant de muscle à l'américaine et de style européen. Cet exemplaire présente une opportunité convaincante d'acquérir une Perana bien entretenue, soigneusement conservée et améliorée ces dernières années. Bénéficiant d'une refonte complète du moteur en 2017 par son premier propriétaire, la voiture conserve sa spécification d'origine et a été remise en service pour une utilisation au Royaume-Uni. Le propriétaire actuel a accordé une attention particulière à la voiture depuis son achat en 2019, en la gardant au garage et en entreprenant d'importants travaux mécaniques, dont un nouveau réservoir de carburant en aluminium fabriqué, un nouveau carburateur Holley, un démarreur révisé, un nouveau cylindre maître de frein et de nombreuses autres améliorations. Les justificatifs du propriétaire précédent pour les pièces et les travaux sont disponibles, ce qui assure l'historique d'entretien. Maintenant immatriculée sur des plaques britanniques et exonérée du contrôle technique (MOT), cette Perana est prête à être appréciée – et si vous souhaitez la mener jusqu'à un véritable niveau de prix de référence, elle constitue une base tout à fait excellente. image.png1.18 MB History and Paperwork - Built in 1972 - Imported from South Africa by first owner with assistance from Basil Green - First UK registration in 2017 - In current ownership since 2019 - Only one former UK owner - Garaged since purchase - Receipts available from previous owner for parts and work - Self-serviced due to limited use - MOT exempt image.png1.02 MB The Condition - The vendor informs us that the car presents very well overall - Some minor scratches and paint chips present, but nothing hugely intrusive Slight surface rust around bonnet pin Minor surface rust patch on front spoiler Underneath appears to be in good condition but may require undersealing - New dash facia and switches fitted - New indicator stalk fitted - New key barrel fitted - New ignition switches fitted - Driver's side door locking mechanism replaced - Very good interior condition Minor rip in roof lining, not noticeable Fuel gauge isolated and needs repair or replacement image.png1.19 MB The Mechanics - 5.0-litre V8 engine - Four-speed automatic transmission - Full engine rebuild in 2017 by first owner - Factory standard with no engine modifications - New fabricated aluminium fuel tank fitted - Starter motor refurbished - New solenoid fitted - New distributor fitted - New spark plug leads fitted - New Holley carburettor fitted - New nickel copper fuel line fitted - New brake master cylinder fitted - New battery fitted - Electric wiring repaired with new relays - New oil sump fitted - Occasional oil drip from transmission sump - Transmission sump gasket requires replacement - The vendor reports that the car runs smoothly, but tracking is affected by a control arm bush that requires replacement image.png1.37 MB BEFORE YOU BUY - This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions.
