There is nothing to make a truly interesting project car like a great engine swap, especially the new power generation that comes from the same donor car maker. It is aware of what might have been a more adventure factory, the demand was present from customers, or a little time could happen. Think, for example, in Toyota MR2S that gets 2ZZ Power such as T Sport Celicas, Rotary MX-5S, golf of five cylinders, and classic BMWS that never aimed to obtain S85 V10 power. You can only be fascinated.
Here we have another. Ford Caprice was the most desirable, as at the time, is the V6s, because the four cylinders were not really a policeman, but there are no four old factors under this hood in 1977 MK2 2.0 S – because it was replaced by YB. Yes, The Cosworth Turbo who went to such fame after the end of Capri production – Sierra Cossie was launched in 1986, in the same year that the last Brooklands was made – he now found his way to the car that you have always promised yourself. And if this does not deserve a story on the pH, nothing.
While there have been a lot of CAPRI projects over the years, most of them focus on a type of V8; This is the first Cossie Capri that we saw. It is a building that was said to have taken a decade, as the car covered only a thousand miles at the time. The fastening switch should be left now, although the next owner’s chance – the demand price is no more than half of what is said to have a cost. If the Intel on YBS is true, the blue camera cap means that it is cut off Cosworth is now in the foreground; While running Standard Boost, there are of course all options for more energy if the next owner wants. Seriously, like anyone who needs to be worried about originality anymore. Capri is very far from just a motor -equipped shell, either – this is a complete transformation, with a Tremec gearbox, allocated exhaust, Wilwood brakes and AP races. It will be an explosion.
This “Cossie” is a purely car around mechanical, at the expense of any other appeal. Because looking at it – only to see the bay of the engine he wants this cabare. The advertisement indicates that the best car was searched for when the idea was gathering, and this is definitely indicating the orange Capri. The fact that there is little mention of the body’s restoration in tens of thousands they spend means that this really was as well as it seems to start. New RC and Recaros wheels are the final touches.
Even without advertising, it will be clear that a lot of money has been invested and the time has been invested in this YB engine Capri to where it is sitting today. However, it is good to know that many respectable names have participated; The next owner purchases a complete (very wonderful) conversion, not a verbal project that someone lost. It is clear that this is not the same for hikers, but those who want fun in Ford Capri – definitely the primary goal – they will be in the land of dreams. The fact that MK2 makes the swap looks smarter; The version that pays a few interest in favor now is inevitable.
The demand price is 34,995 pounds, which is clear that the Capri’s higher dollar – if not the most spent. And because it has been removed from the standard specifications, it may not be the older Ford for sale again. Of course, it is that it is offered for sale in a large amount of less than the cost of construction, and it appears great, and is considered a kind of fun that no shares can offer. Which looks very good. And imagine that you are able to tell people that you have Capri Kossi …
