The second generation of Ford's popular Capri was introduced in February 1974 and although it was mechanically similar to the Mark I, the Capri II had a revised, larger body, a more modern dashboard and a smaller steering wheel The most powerful model in the range was the 3-litre V6, offered as the 3.0GT until 1976 when it was replaced by the 138bhp 3.0S The third generation Capri arrived in March 1978 meaning that the Capri II is the rarest model and a Capri II 3.0S even rarer still Dating from early 1978, this 3.0S has been subject to a full nut and bolt restoration with an engine rebuild carried out as part of the process Finished in black with Silver 'S' coachlines following a professional respray and presents well with a newly fitted interior including refreshed trim and new headlining Showing 66,000 miles at the time of cataloguing, the car has been enjoyed by three previous owners prior to our vendor's purchase in 2020 A strikingly well-presented Capri that is ready to be enjoyed on the road, equally suited to a collection of period performance Fords
