Background Story of this 1985 Mercury Capri

Overview of 1985 Mercury Capri For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

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?

Engine

This 1985 Mercury Capri Grand Sport enjoys a throaty high output 5.0L V8 with fuel injected individual throttle bodies, MSD ignition, aluminum heads, and headers. It’s paired with a slick 5-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive, making this a true driver’s car. Then, we’ve got adjustable Koni shocks and Wilwood brakes for a comprehensive upgrade to the car’s overall dynamic package.

1953 Mercury Monterey

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,999

With its name derived from Monterey Bay, the same inspiration for the famous Monterey Jack cheese, the Mercury Monterey was a full-size automobile by Mercury that was available between 1952 and 1974. Mercury itself, the mid-tier luxury division of Ford sat between Ford and Lincoln, and, sadly, was retired in 2011. So, this is one of those classic American names from a defunct manufacturer. That only adds to the cachet of this 1953 Mercury Monterey. The fact that its maker is no more only adds more to the car’s value, as does its Flathead V8, auto gearbox and mere 1,700 miles. A discerning collector will have no hesitation in snapping up this car, while a budding collector should seriously consider acquiring it sans delay.
