1994 Mercury Capri XR2. Found it on a mass Craigslist Google search for XR2's and it was right around the corner. It's a little rough around the edges and needs a head gasket, but should be a neat little car. They only pushed out 366 XR2's in 1994. Car came with the original window sticker and hardtop stand.

Once it's back on the road, my buddy has a bunch of F2T Probe crap that might help pull a little more power out of it.

Nice! I always liked those, especially with the hardtop.

I think most of them became parts donors for 323 GTXs.

Love the teal and fuchsia badge.

I realize its wet in all the photos but it does look pretty nice. A few years back there was a guy running one in local autocrosses. I think it was completely stock. The wheelspin and body roll were hilarious.

One of those cars that really should have been MID or RWD.

In for AWD swap.

Haha. No AWD in this thing for me. I've got a DSM for that (when it runs).

The idea for now is to clean it up, fix the headgasket and whatever else it needs, add a little more power and DD it.

You'll need to log in to post.
