[Shotimes] (OT) Marauder

[Victor Allen]

Found this pretty complete history of the Capri.  I drive a '72 GT a few
times on the freeways/interstates in Michigan, it was a hoot, the V-6
was 'spunky', 4-speed tight.

They were German.  I saw them all the time when I was rotating over
there in C-130s
from Pope AFB.  They were pretty snazzy for their time.  I don't know
what they had
for power or anything else.....just looked at them.  They were
everywhere in 70 and
'71.
