    Just reading through this thread and also the one mentioned on page 6. This pick up was done by Alan Cox from Farnham at the time. The head room was so limited that they made the roof detachable! The rear lights weren't sequential as suggested on the other thread but were 4 red lights all wired up as rear lights 2 outside ones wired as brake lights as well and the inside ones flashed as indicators as well as being sidelights, all had blue dots, it looked the b****cks but the police didn't seem to like it!!

    I do like those wire wheels on a Capri.

    No, actually, I think I would like some of those wheels.

    I've got a brand new set still in their boxes for sale .

    When I was in the owners club some years ago, there was a for sale advert in the owners mag of a home brewed Classic estate with woody panels on which sounded very intriguing. Hmm, I wonder if there is a pic out there somewhere????????????????????????????????????????? ???????

    Raymans Capri

    Here's my brothers Consul Capri. He has a choice of wheels depending on his mood or what kind of show he's going to.

    A couple more....



    PS. Mine was the first with "switching" sequential indicators. It was my college project, fully digital with about 50 chips. I still have the diagram somewhere.....
