1986 Ford Capri Laser 20 years in storage SOLD

1985 Ford Capri 1. 6 Laser! Finished in Rare Stratos Silver
Absolutely totally complete and completely original!! Never been messed with!
Pulled out of a garage last week after 20 years in hibernation!!
Having put fresh fuel in and 15 minutes later the old girl was up and running!

Bad bits first!! Please read!!
Unfortunately was left in a leaking garage which has caused some bodywork issues (was virtually perfect when it went in)

Rear inner and outer sills need welding and possibly part of the floor
Wing rails at the top also need attention
Wings are in fairly bad shape but are original as is the bonnet
Lower rear quarter. s will need replacing (or repair)
Front and rear valances need the same
Rear arches aren’t to bad but will need work
Brakes are binding due to standing
Exhaust is blowing in the middle

Now the good bits!
Engine sounds absolutely perfect having covered only 93, 000 miles, there’s a date on the slam panel from 9/ 2000 at 90, 000 miles where it had a cam belt
Goes into all gears lovely (apparently it had a recon box just before it was parked up)
Clutch is free and feels light and perfect biting point
Brakes all work although binding a little
Fully working sunroof and all the rails and gutters are perfect
Roof also in excellent condition as is the scuttle below the windscreen
Tailgate is excellent as are the rails down to the rear lights!
Doors have minor rust on the bottom corners next to the quarter panel end
inner flitches and strut tops are good just surface rust
Interior is in absolutely amazing condition!! Like being in a time warp!!
I honestly don’t think you could get much better!
Parcel shelf is perfect with no speaker holes cut into it!
Headlining is perfect, carpets are great, no cracks in the dashboard at all!!
Everything works including the radio!
5 alloy wheels

V5 Logbook, handbooks and two keys all here
Only 3 former keepers! last two were father and daughter since 1995

This Capri will be absolutely amazing when finished
Please note there probably will be more welding once you get started
Been totally honest with everything i can see, If you have any doubts please do not bid
You are more than welcome to come and view before auction end

This is not a weekends worth of work but 100 percent a great project and will only be going up in value once it back to former glory

Honestly if it doesn’t sell i will be keeping it as a winter project!

Please only bid if you have fully read the description and can 100 percent commit to buy
More photos available of bad bits! Just ask and i will send them over to you

Very original mk4 XR3I Cabriolet. Bought ten years ago, I'm only the second owner. It had just under 59000 miles when bought it in 2013. All original glass and panels. Not immaculate by any means, but a very nice little car, won't take much to make this a mint example. Reluctant sale, however I have lost storage recently. ...

Here is a chance to purchase a project that is quite unusual. Not only is this Ford Capri very solid, but it has also been 'fitted' with a later BMW V12. We're not entirely sure why someone decided to cram a V12 engine and auto gearbox into the front of this Capri, but it definitely makes for something just a little bit ...
