Been awhile since I updated this. I have the bodywork done on the Capri, high build sprayed, and it's blocked up to 220. I need to touch up a couple small spots then it's ready to sand with 500 and shoot the sealer/paint.

I decided to shave the original spoiler and third brake light. A friend is working on 3d printing a duckbill style spoiler instead and it'll attach with double sided tape.






Ready for primer.










This was my first time spraying 2k in forever, I'm used to Slick Sand which is thicker... Thats what razor blades are for.




Wetsanded, checking the reflection to see if it's straight enough or if it needs more work. Since it's just a $450 Capri it was straight enough.




I bought a steering wheel for it, a pretty rare gunmetal version of a Momo Futura.




No one make a steering hub for a Capri so I used a press to punch out the steel insert from the stock wheel center. I'll machine a ring and weld it on to adapt to the six bolt pattern.






And I found a nicer seat on OfferUp.
