Marcos Maniacs

Hey Paul,
I joined the Capri list and was looking through the archives
(specifically at your conversation).
I had forgotten that we have almost the exact same car!
Oh how I would love to get the two side-by-side. ;-)
 
Thanks for that great lead!
 
Jeff

Jeff,
I know Marcos Heritage sells a fuse box, also you can buy the Build 
manual from them, it has the wiring diagrams.   You bought the red 84 
from Wire Wheel Classics---right---and it has the Capri Drivetrain.
I just joined the Yahoo Capri-List group, it has lots of info on the 
Capri drivetrain --- and for those of you with Capri drums brakes
<blitz@...> has Capri parts.
My car was built w/o a fuse box!!! and the second to last owner put 4 
inline fuses in the engine compartment.  I'm having most of my work 
done, and upgrading the wiring is on the list but this winter I'm 
planning on a conversion to a 5 speed, sourced from Marcos Heritage,
the Capri-list was informative but no US options, the only sporty 
ratio bolt in 5 speed was only imported in ~ 500 Merkurs.  This 
tranny was used a lot in Europe, same 4 gear ratio's then an 
overdrive.  Lots of emails I can forward if anyone wants the info.
Paul
