    I always wanted one of these early '70s Capris. But I'm not sure this one is worth $CDN 11k. Seller seems to have a bit of an attitude too:

    "Try to find a more Solid Capri platform in Canada. Go ahead. Try."

    OK, Emilio, I will take up your challenge. I will continue to try. Heck, I've had 50 years of trying so far. I can try for maybe another 25 years.

    Well, I KNOW this one ain't worth $11,000 (Can.) That's just under $8,600 (US)

    1. It's the base 1600 cc engine that not too many people wanted. The 2,000 cc 4 or the 2800 cc would be a better choice.
    2. Car needs a paint job. Not really too attractive in its present state.
    3. I don't think these are quite to 'collector' status just yet. You could get a fairly decent original Mustang for $11,000, I would imagine.....

    I'd put the value at more like $3,700 (US) or a little over $4,700 (Can.)

    And I notice that Emilio doesn’t have any pics of the dash or front seats, Marshall. Which makes me think the front seats are trashed. :(
