any ideas? No badges on back. Is it a ford? well before my time!
found it today amongst some other interesting cars parked in a clients long term multi-storey car park. Has a parking ticket on the windscreen from 2005!
there was also an S-Reg titanium S1 under a car cover - dont know how long its been sitting there!?!?

Yep, the original Consul Capri. Did not have one of those, but had a near neighbour, the Ford Zephyr 6.

However I did buy one of the first next generation Capris in '69.

Ford Consul Classic Capri Convertible

1500 cc pre crossflow of around 1963 IIRC

There are a couple of these in the local Pre 67 Ford Club

One of my teachers bought one at launch. I was of course very young at the time (younger than Pesky :lol: )
