And as you can tell we have a horrible crack problem. What in the holy heck is this thing? Certainly not a thunderbird, more like a capri with a really long front end. Kit car or custom?

Hopefully a link to facebook marketplace works here as this thing has to be seen...

Yep, based on the Australian built Capri. Came stock with a Mazda 4-banger, so even if you think the car is fugly you gotta admire the clean V-8 swap under the hood. Get rid of the bodyside moldings and the graphics, dump the rear spoiler and put a Continental kit on the back to match the 1940 Continental front end, clean up the interior hack job on the console, and yeah, I'd drive it.

Definitely a Capri.

I do not remember the capri having that long of a front end myself. Again do you think its a kit or custom? I mean if its custom I have to take my hat off to the crack head that had the vision.

Original front end was shorter, that's true. Bet they put the rear wing on to balance off the front end. Still think a continental kit would have been better...

I was sure that they were smaller. Again I have to tip my hat to the craftsman as now in includes some kind of frame modification.

I hadn't noticed that! Yeah, the front wheels are way forward from stock.

I went back, clicked on link, looked at car...... hideous!!

I would call it hideously impressive since I can appreciate the work put into it. I could maybe see it being on a thunderbird frame which is why he is calling it a t-bird.
