  • Gauging interest: Anyone interested in a Tickford Capri?

    Probably not the cup of tea for this site, but a good friend of mine has asked me to help him sell his UK Tickford Capri clone project. He has all the bodywork, a genuine Cosworth EFI V6 and much more. It does run. It is mostly paint & body and interior it needs, but the body is very straight and little to no rust. I plan to head down and mock up as much as I can and get more details in the next few weeks. It would be a killer project for the right person, but admittedly, it would take a real enthusiast to complete it.

    This is an actual Tickford. This is pretty much what it would look like.

    What year is the engine? 24 valve?
    Magnus, I am your father. You need to ask your mother about a man named Calvin Klein.

      I think Denny is the only one who could pull that off.

          It looks like a saab raped a corvair, it is pretty cool though.

            Not sure yet. I am going to say late 80's engine. I assume it is a 24v being it is a DOHC. I just don't know much about those Cosworths. The body is a 77 since that was the last year that body was imported to the US, but they continued building them in the UK through 86. He spent a lot of money getting stuff imported here from the UK until his health declined and he just lost interest. It is a rolling car with upgraded brakes and suspension, engine and driveline installed and wired and it can be started. I know it is some aftermarket computer system which is fully tunable with a laptop. Interior is gutted at the moment. None of the Tickford body panels have been installed as of yet. Located in Maypearl.

              I have an XR4Ti with RS500 body work that looks like the one if the gif above except that it is white; I am sure that I could pull off another Euro Ford.

              What does he want for the Capri?

                        Yes, but I did get these in the same colors as yours so we match!

                            I'm like 10 minutes from Maypearl, Frank. Let me know if you need a wingman when you go!
