My mate bought one of these us models in the uk a few years back,found out the V6 in it had 3 port heads instead of the usual 2 ports ala capri 2.8i.Mate put a 350 chevy in the capri and put the V6 engine on ebay and got £900 for it!!!(9x the usual price at the time).Buyer rekons the heads go for £1k each.mate gutted lol.As my story's over a 15 old,must be worth a fortune now.nice motor btw brings back memories...
These cars performance wasn't either well known or perhaps it was not a car that was highly sought after in California. I had the good fortune of owning one of these automobiles once and with some minor carb jetting, and a few other performance enhancing modifications, I was truly astounded at just how fast/and how well it handled. Talk about a trip down memory lane.Thanks for the video....
Capri II's styling has held up much better over time than other cars of the period. This one's a nice example - like the split-bumper mild custom job.
the 1970-1977 Mercury Capri was assembled in
Cologne, Germany
Saarlouis, Germany

Thanks, but I don't think it's the Hendrix version of the song! I think it's some other band covering it, so i'd like to know whose version this is!

Oops! you are right it's Jeff Healey. He does such a good job I thought it sounded like Hendrix.. LOL!
