Thanks fellas, I had this one delivered today, bought it blind, took a huge gamble considering the cost, but so far I am pleasantly surprised, its a 1.6 Laser.

She has had all rust removed and replaced with new metal including floor, replacement front wings, she is totally rust free, more new parts than you can shake a stick at.

The spray job on the wings could be better, correct colour but its new paint against old (shade difference), so I reckon I will get the wings blown over, also the bonnet.

A few little touches I can see that need doing, so it looks like I got some fun ahead of me this summer, but all the hard work has already been done. So it looks like the ZT and the TF have a new playmate, I wonder which one will go wrong first?

I forgot how easy these Capri's are to work on, just look at that old 1.6 Pinto engine, just look at all the room in there...
