1983 Capri Cabaret II 4 speed 46. 00 genuine miles. two owners from new
In 1983 the first owner bought this car new. It was his 6th Capri. he owned and cherished it for ten years garaging it every night and only using it sparingly
He sold it to his next door neighbor in 1993. For two years he did exactly the same and in 1995 parked it in his garage and covered it in sheets.
Fast forward 18 years this lovely Capri lay sleeping in the warm integral garage till now.
I have met with the two owners who still live next door to each other and confirmed to me the mileage of 46000 miles is genuine.
On gently wheeling it out of the garage it was like unearthing Tutankhamen the condition is correctly described as time warp.
Albeit for a slight age crack in the dash top roll The engine was free and the paintwork. all original. and in almost unmarked condition.
Having been Ziebarted from new the engine bay and floor pans are well preserved underneath the mat covering. I have removed the ziebart from the inner wing tops and the fire wall which now gleaming. more work with a paraffin soaked rag will expose more preserved paint work
Put straight in to the workshop the re-commissioning work went as follows:-
New Cambelt New water pumpFresh oil and filter New battery (on connecting the battery everything worked heater fan lights wipers radio the lot) New points and Plugs New Condenser New brake master cylinder Serviced the brakes replaced all brake flexible hoses and rear wheel cylinders Replaced steering gaiters
After turning the engine over by hand which felt good with strong compression I started the engine easily for the first time in 18 years. Which now starts crisply. runs very smoothly and has solid good oil pressure
Some very light cosmetic work has been conducted The wheels have been sand blasted and repainted as they were showing sign of ageing Bumpers repainted Front valance seams painted as very lightly marked. there are some chips in the lacquer of the drivers door and a light graze on the nearside which has been nicely touched in
