Restored 1973 Ford Capri Mk1

Restored 1973 Ford Capri Mk1

This 1973 Ford Capri Mk 1 has been lovingly restored after initially being used as a daily driver. The restoration included a complete engine rebuild prioritizing low-end torque, a 5-speed gearbox swap for better highway driving, and upgraded brakes using components from the Capri's V6 variant. The suspension was enhanced with beefier sway bars, and the car retains an analog driving feel with manual steering and brakes. The exterior and interior have been kept classic and period-correct, preserving the original charm of this beloved Ford Capri.
