Lost Capri

Wow, digging through old pic's and found this!! V-6, 4-speed, and dual Thrush exhaust. This car was faster than my MustangII Cobra with the 302 V8.

Great little cars- huge seller in Europe in the day.

As far as it being faster than a Mustang II...

in those days, it's sad that we'd consider anything with 140 HP "fast." I'm sure the Capri could outrun it with two wheels tied behind its back.
