Ford Capri - Ford Consul Capris

It is very unusual to see these come up for sale but there are two on EBay at the moment.

This the first one & is claimed to be totally original, built in 1963 & unrestored with 20,000 miles on the clock. The seller claims it to be the best Consul Capri in the world. It is listed at $50,000 with a Buy Now tag. Quite a few people watching but no one has put the money down yet.

This is the second one. This is a complete car in need of a total restoration.
There were 17 bids at the time of writing with bidding reaching $4050 with 2 days to go. Could be interesting.
