Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1963 Ford Consul Capri is a rare, dark green two-door coupe with a two-tone interior and Mini-Lite style wheels. It has been upgraded with a 2.0 litre Pinto engine and a five-speed gearbox for improved performance, making it a blend of retro aesthetics and modern driving dynamics.
Condition
6
The car is described as having sleek lines and dark green paintwork complemented by a two-tone interior. Mini-Lite style wheels further enhance its retro aesthetics. While the description highlights the car's fun factor when driven, the presence of a 2.0 litre Pinto engine and five-speed gearbox suggests modifications from its original factory condition. The car's age implies that some level of wear and tear is likely, but the overall impression is that it has been well-maintained and is in good running order.

Description
The Ford Consul Capri was launched in 1961 and was the first European market Ford to bear the Capri name.
The Ford Consul Capri is a two-door coupé version of the Consul Classic and was available from 1961 until 1964.
In February 1963, the GT version was announced.
The sleek lines of this rare Consul Capri perfectly showcase its dark green paintwork.
Complemented by a two-tone interior this Ford has a design that still looks fresh today but must have been way ahead of its time for 1963.
We are informed that these stunning looks are matched by the cars fun factor when driven.
This Consul Capri is now fitted with a 2.0 litre Pinto engine and a five-speed gearbox, offering brisk performance with retro aesthetics, which are further enhanced by Mini-Lite style wheels.
Offered to auction with a V5C registration certificate this Capri is sensibly estimated given the huge popularity that all Ford models have enjoyed in recent years.
