Wonderful Blue Capri, show car or driver, (ROAD TRIP CAR) by 2nd owner 1973 , I am selling this for the owner who does not have computer skills, When he brought the CAPRI over to my house to photograph, it is the wonderful example of a redone, modified car,

I was amazed at the car, It is so clean, you can eat off the engine.. . Probable the best kept original and modified car I have ever seen. It paint is crisp and bright, (camera does not capture the color) the white on the top, seats, rear tire package is white and not stained or tarnished. All of the chrome is 95 to 98% with only one tiny ding in mid of the front bumper. Bumperettes are excellent rubber, grill perfect, front spoiler or air damn is added and looks perfect. Rear lights have been changed because original were degraded. Everything works on the car lights, horn, etc. Full Owner's Manuals, advertising brochures, etc, Factory maintenance manual goes with car about 1.5 inches thick, cost $35.00 in 1980. Pick it up in Scranton and drive it to Florida, California etc. will go anywhere.A wonderful summer road trip use the CB to talk to the truckers and others in route, what a blast. This CAPRI looks and drives like a NEW CAR. Why have a common Mustang or Chevy when you can get this Capri, you will not see another.

Wait till you read the additions that work perfect... all of these interior additions were around 1980 and have only 1500 miles on the car since their installation .1. power antenna, 2. Power windows, 3. power trunk lid, 4.interior trunk lights 5. interior trunk trim including, first aid kit, tool kit. 6. Realistic CB Radio. 7. ZT Dynamic Travel computer which tell mileage, battery voltage, outside temperature, also works a cruise control. and some other functions (has a manual) 8. New 1980 Kenwood Stereo radio, with a cassette player, with rear speakers in shelf behind rear seats and in front doors.
The running gear and engine are maintained but not traveled on, since the older build up of 1500 to 2000 miles ago. Engine starts and runs fine (will probably need a tune up sometime), Has new rack and pinion steering put in 5 years ago with 200 miles on it. Tires are up, lots of tred, good pressure, no sign of dry rot probably installed 1990.

THIS CAR IS KEPT in the owners garage and is climate controlled (heated in winter and in the mountains of PA, no humidity) The owner is very detail orientated. Garage is perfect. like the car.
Car has been in numerous auto shows and has won awards in modified class (ACCA) (award goes with the car) , This car is a head turner wherever it goes, It is almost perfect and get great mileage as well.

RETURN THE CAPRI to original. The Continental Kit, would come right off, and the bumper bolts back on. The console in the inside can be removed but you would loose some goodies. The trunks has been redone in carpeting with a first aid box, that would have to go back to cheap original stuff.Owner may or may not have the original tail lights way in the attic but he can't be sure, he remembers them as not in the best of shape, whatever is there in the attic, you get. The electric windows would probably have to stay.

IT IS sure to bring a value to people for years to come. a great investment
Call the owner at (Fred) at 570 842 8847 he will give you more info. However, any bidding goes through Ebay. I was adverse to listing this so low priced without a reserve...but he wanted it..He is wanting this car to go to the right person. A box of original parts go with it.

Thanks for looking

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
