That's gone as well unfortunately. Ive now got an LD that I'm contemplating fixing up, or selling, which is currently more likely.
Here is the one I sold in 2007 , California car now in the hands of an ex Brit in New York, was a great car with red flake roof .
Just on 18,000 with 6,000 going abroad, about 2000 went to Italy as I've spoken to the owners club over there . Only 2002 GT models made and the last 500 Capris made in 1964 were all GT's.
Approx 118,000 Classics made . In actual fact the 2 door Classic is rarer than the Capri.

There was a thread over in the Discussion forum about Consul Capris a while ago which had some great pictures, it can be found here http://www.nsra.org.uk/newforum/showthread.php?t=7669
I love these cars, here are a couple of pics that I have:
This is Jon Pastor's Capri at the 1979 Nats:
..and a rather faded pic of its trophy winning interior:
My old nail:
Was marvelling at your handiwork in the SM feature (I picked up a whole bunch of late '90's copies recently and have been going through them). One awesome looking car.Some of mine
Full size image in 'my intro ' link below.
Plus I've owned another 3 4 door Classisc as daillies along with a 1500GT Capri, even owned just a roof at one stage .
Every time we get the photos out Marian says we've got to get another one. I do have a couple of plans for a different approach.
Very nearly put an offer on one at the Symonds Yat Cortina day last year. Would love one one day.
Wow! How many in the Italian Owners Club!
Amazing that they are so much rarer than 2 door classics!
I suppose it really is our equivelant 58/59 Impala coupe!
And not a single pic of "lil red rooster" that used to cruise the streets of tulse hill '76 to '81
About 10 known to the Italian club, so few that they are part of the later Capri club. It's the 2 door Classics that are rarer than Capris , only something like 6000 made , so the other 112,000 were all 4 doors.
The rarest of the rare are the Base model 2 door cCssic, only 2 known to exist still. They are rarer than even the 'legendary' Hooper Capri which were a big disappointment to me when I saw one in the flesh.
The British club have records on about 500 Capris left known to them.
It was the affordable (to me ) Impala Coupe style that drew me to them all those years back.

Mine, owned her for 27 years sold last April. Blub

More drawer handles
Original
Add some of these on a satin black background
The reflection of the chrome in the black background gives the 'effect'
Some more pics

<<<<< The ex-Jon Pastor one is being worked on. Progress is slow, but there is progress. Hope to have it back on the road this summer.
