    There is no Mercury brand in Germany where the Capri you show was built, so it was a FORD. It was sold in the USA through Mercury dealers. It was sold in England as well. Great cars. I've had 2. Both were 2.0 ltr 4 cyl. 30+ MPH. Friends had the V6 model and they were quicker.

    Dennis,
    Those eary 60's Capri's were neat. Like a shrunk 60 Ford coupe.

    That's the Austrailian Falcon.Kinda like a shrunk Torino stuffed full of 351 Cleveland power. Here is a Capri from Europe. I had two of these. They were good cars[​IMG]
