View Full Version : Pete & Jeff's Track & Drift Car
Me and Jeff from this board bought this between us to thrash sound some tracks and maybe try some drifting too - save us smashing up our S13s! :o
She's a 1984 Capri 2.8i. Needs a bit of work but she's already stripped out and fitted with bucket seats! :D
Only cost £150 too :)
The :ghey: bonnet scoop has been removed btw :rolleyes:

Capris are great, such an English Mustang :)
The person that bought that scoop needs to be hunted down and shot though ..... I dont even think our corsa boiz would do something that sick !
still miss my capri now and again :(
ooooh... my favourite colour too :D

We bought it from the Classic Car Club Bristol, it was one of their mechanics who fitted it :eek:
A suprising lack of taste for a man who spends all day fixing and polishing some really nice classic cars :rolleyes:
I love the rest of it tho ;)
Nice one lads,
A few drift scars and it'll look well 'ard :eek: :)
Can I bagsy a passenger ride if you take her on track? :wave:
Why don't you try and sell the bonnet scoop to the MP boys, they'd love that kind of shite :D
Alg :nod:
Lovely car and a bargain price - that's an LSD one isnt it?

Don't see why you can come out in it mate, might be a while before we get it ready tho 'coz we're lazy :wack:
Would do, but we don't have the scoop, the previous owner liked it so much he took it off before selling the car :ghey:

if it's a 2.8i special its got LSD, but it seems to have the early 2.8i pepperpot wheels indicating its not a special :confused:

That's what I thought to start with, but I'm not sure 'cos it had the pepperpot wheels and cloth interior. Might be one of the very last non-LSD 2.8i's :(
It is confusing tho, 'cos I thought after 1984 they were all Specials. I saw a Special on an 'A' plate the other day too, and ours is a 'B' plate...
nice :thumbs:
couple of hundred more and you could have had Jeffs ols S13 back :D

The Capri smokes and rattles less ;) I would say it's quieter but the exhaust on the Capri has been binned in favour of some straight, unsilenced, unmuffled bits of 2 inch pipework exiting from the sides of the car :wack: It's loud enough to wake the dead :nod: :eek: :D Gonna have to sort that for track days though :(
The previous owners planned to fit nitrous and blow it up, but gave up and sold it to us poor.... I mean lucky, sods instead :D
If anyone knows of a Capri being broken or somewhere good to get spares we need some kind of exhaust system :wack: and some bolts to hold the seatbelts in place as ours have been thrown away :cry: Plus a load of other bits we've probably not even noticed yet :rolleyes:

Anytime, especially if you're any good at fitting those crappy replacement windscreen wiper rubbers :cry: :annoyed: :furious: :D
Might bring it to the next Longwell meet :thumbs:

Good idea about bringing it to the next meet Jeff - I'll drive, as long as I can give your name if I get stopped by the Rozzers :wack: :D
