1984 Mercury Capri, Like Mustang, Fox Body. Maximum Motorsports Suspension

Mercury Capri 1984 Description

For Sale. 1984 Mercury Capri, .0 V8, speed manual transmission. This year Capri is the same mechanically as the Mustang. I bought this car about three years ago from a Capri collector in Oregon. I have been building this car to be competitive regionally in SCCA Solo (autocross). During the build my fiance and I decided we would like to get out of debt and I chose to sell my daily driver. Because of this the Capri became my daily driver and I had to stop with some of the more aggressive parts of the build and ease up on the spending. I am selling the car because I need something a bit more practical.
The good:
- I drive this car every day and have been for almost a year. It runs and drives very well.
- 1 year old Maximum Motorsports road and track box (less the shocks pictured). ($2600)
- The rear end has been converted to a 3 link set up /wMaximumMotorsport Torque-arm kit.
- The rear end is a freshly rebuilt Ford 8.8 /w 3.27 gears, resh Tru-Trac, ew axles from NorthwestDifferentials ($1650).
- All suspension and most steering parts replaced or upgraded.
- Previous owner claims the engine was rebuilt and transmission was resealed. Engine appears to be all stock, ossibly a "rv" cam. Runs good. Clutch grabs well.
- New high torque starter
- Newer Holly carb
- New tires, ontinental Extreme Contact, ess then 2,000 miles ($500).
- Body pretty strait and rust free.
- Many other new parts, have a large stack of invoices of most the work I have done since I have owned the car.
The bad:
- Needs an inner tie rod and a u-joint
- Interior isn't so pretty, un faded seats and trim, racked dash, nd missing the cloth for the headliner
- Exterior needs paint, ome trim items, nd has a cracked valance.
Car is being sold as-is.
