Hang on…isn’t Capri a Ford model? Well, yes that was the case in many markets outside the United States. But back home in Detroit, Ford had several sub-brands. Mercury was one of them, and in 1970, Capri was too. Initially, it was what was called a captive import that was imported from Ford of Europe and sold merely as a Capri. No Ford or any other parent branding was borne on the car. In 1979, things changed for the second generation of the American Capri. Capri was now a model under Ford’s Mercury division and based on the famous Fox platform. So, it was basically like a Fox Body Mustang with different styling. This generation was made as the Mercury Capri between 1979 and 1986. Today, we’ve got one of these curios in the shape of a Connecticut-residing 1985 Mercury Capri Grand Sport. This 26,000-mile car is up for sale and comes with some neat performance enhancements. We’re told that the car features its original body and paint, and even includes the original booklets with the sale.
This 1985 Mercury Capri Grand Sport can is coated in black paint, and features a stylish design of a coupe melded tastefully with a hatchback. It’s very eighties in look, right down to the quad headlamps, slats over the rear taillamps and black plastic trim behind the rear windows. The car rides on a set of HRE alloy wheels in silver and gold, giving it a nice restomod stance. The beige interior of this 1985 Mercury Capri Grand Sport is a four-seat affair, and a veritable time capsule. You’ve got a Ford-branded AM/FM push-button radio in stereo, no less. Passenger comfort is enhanced via air conditioning and heating, controlled via good old buttons and sliders. Lower down, you’ve got an indicator system to alert in case a head or taillamp bulb is burned out. The system also alerts you if your fuel level is low and even if your windshield washer fluid needs topping up. Isn’t that neat?

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower.
