An exceptional example of the iconic Ford Capri 280 Brooklands, number 745 of just 1,031 produced. This car has undergone a comprehensive ground-up, nut-and-bolt restoration, completed with a strong emphasis on originality and attention to detail. Since completion, it has covered just 134 miles and presents and drives as close to a new Capri 280 as you could reasonably expect. The body was taken back to bare metal with the glass removed before being professionally repainted. Any panels requiring replacement were replaced using Expressed Steel Panels components, with no patch repairs. Mechanically, the car has been comprehensively rebuilt. The engine was fully rebuilt by Connaught Competition Engines, while the gearbox was stripped and rebuilt. The rear axle was also rebuilt and fitted with a new LSD. Restoration work includes: Full bare-metal repaint Replacement panels where required - no patch repairs New front windscreen Fully rebuilt engine by Connaught Competition Engines Gearbox stripped and rebuilt Rear axle rebuilt with new LSD New Bilstein suspension throughout New front and rear brakes New brake lines and servo New fuel tank New injectors Rebuilt fuel injection distributor Alternator and starter motor overhauled Numerous components professionally powder coated Original stereo rebuilt Seats refurbished to original specification New carpets New headlining Fully operational sunroof New rear lights Bumpers overhauled New tyres The result is a beautifully restored and exceptionally well-sorted Capri 280. It has covered only 134 miles since the restoration was completed and drives perfectly. The car will be supplied with a fresh MOT together with a pack of spare parts. A rare opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable production Capris in outstanding, freshly restored condition.
