Old Fords

[Dr Jekyll]

The original Capri looked great, but had a terrible reputation for everything else - rust, handling, reliability, etc. They seemed to disappear (biodegrade) very quickly.
The more common Classic fared little better. Someone I knew bought one new, but it was already victim of the tin worm straight out of the factory.

I did wonder if it was a bit too early for many to survive to the crucial point in the early eighties when any old car became a Classic by definition.
