Hi all. I'm putting this on for a guy I only met very briefly today as he is trying to sell the following. I personaly think this car would make a great starting point for a project car to build.
The car is a TA22 as mentioned. It has a V6 Ford Capri motor and 4 speed box in it. Has a LSD, holden I think he said. Looking at the rear wheels (track) I couldn't see any problems having 8 inch rims or bigger under it. The interior has already had the front and back seats retrimed with matching door trims and a custom centre console.
The engine is engineered with papers and was passed back in 1995, so its been in there a while. However the car is out of rego at this stage.
When he started it, I fell in love with the sound. Sounds bloody great, like a V8. I must mention that there is a knocking sound when motor running, but this goes away if you put into gear and load up the box. I think it may be a gearbox problem and he mentioned that 2nd gear was stuffed. There is also a little rust as to be expected, but I dont think its to bad.
Anyway, if you are interested the car is in the Campbelltown area and the owner works a place called Conventry Auto Parts, Watsford Road. I dont even know his name but you can call him on 4626 6885 (business hours) and just asked to speak to the guy with the celica for sale.
Sorry I cant give you any more infomation at this stage. But as I said, I only saw the car this afternoon for a few minutes but thought if you are interested you could ring and have a look this weekend. Good luck, Kevin

Can you grind the brand name off the engine without having to have it re-engineered ?
Seriously though, have you ever driven a V6 Capris ? I have, my brother had one and they go really hard. Only problem was engine oil leaks if I remember correctly.

Handbrakes are used for turning into driveways with style... How else to you impress the ladies without getting into your Speedo's?
