Someone needs to buy this car!

77 Ford Capri widebody $500/obo

and when I say "someone" I mean someone besides me.

oh wow.... that'd be a crime to take that to a crusher... if I hadn't just bought the Celica... and it wasnt' 12 hours away...

My FAVORITE style of fender flares. Why tempt me like this?

That thing is a beast. Incredibly awesome.

Hot up the pinto with a lumpy cam and loud exhaust, or swap in a V6/V8 for one badass set of wheels.

quick someone pay pal me 500 I'll buy it!!!

That Ford Motorsport Cam Cover pulls $250+ on eBay...

How far is Oregon from Connecticut?

bout 3k ish miles

Please stop posting cool cars that cost less than the trip to get them.

Damn Oregon for being so far from me.

Sounds like some of you need to get a last minute flight out to Oregon.

If any of you do, I'd be willing to help out. Dad used to have a 73 and he probably has a Haynes manual for it. Plus I have a spare bedroom and a garage along with some tools. If I didn't already have both bays full of project cars and the specter of losing my job fairly soon, I'd jump all over it.

Seriously if someone doesn't buy that it'll be criminal, if a 2.3L is already in there you can swap in a bolt in 2.3Turbo...

COME ON!

I don't think the thread title adequately conveys the urgency of saving this car.

I am sad.

Classic Motorsports should buy this car!

oh JG.................................

I never wanted a Capri until right now.

New they had a V-6 option, but I don't see why a SBF 5.0 wouldn't fit.

Oh god do I want this car. I don't move to Seattle and start my job till December. Ughh, I'm broke and 2000 miles away.

Too bad I can't think of a cheap way to get it to Georgia.

Come on, really. Somebody else buy this thing so I don't have to try to drive it back to St. Louis.

Seriously, though, what's the deal with this thing? Is this a factory special, or just a homebrew somethingorother?

And, should I pack light and just bring the SAE wrenches, or will I need metric for some stuff?

I bet it is owned by a Nigerian prince. No way that's a $500 car.

Just a homebrew somethingorother, but it's very cheap and looks like it's a very nicely excecuted homebrew somethingorother.

Why doesn't someone send a link to this thread to the seller and let him/her know there is interest from outside Portland. May delay a trip to the scrap yard by a couple of days.

Metric motor bub, bring both. I'd be willing to go get the car and hold it for a sufficient bribe

holy crap.

I read the listing and the location said NE MLK. I thought "NEBRASKA?!? I LIVE IN NEBRASKA! WHERE'S MLK?!? oh."
