Bob; some of the US military personell in Europe did. Or some got themselves a US- spec Capri when they got home....(The Europen built Capri was so popular in the US that they had to stop importing it in 76 as they needed sales for the Mustang II to move up.... It shared the 2.8V6 with the Capri, but the Capri was lighter & quicker. After a Couple of years the new "US" Capri- model arrived, based on the Mustang)I have been chatting alot over the years wit Capri- owners in the US, and even made some friends!


Anyway: Now comes what I started off to do an hour or so ago....

Jac-Mac: You & your scetch are 100% correct and my friend is noe longer to trust (because he has to much air under the bonnet). After 1 day of driving, on road and track, I did not even get a tiny glimpse of the piece of rag hanging down from a piece of duct-tape in the centre of the hole where the rear end of the scoop used to be.

It is a high pressure zone. (And I will fill it in with fibreglass, as it used to be.)
