This is not just limited to Capri projects – it might be a motorbike, tractor or Combi van (the only limit is what you’ve restored in your lifetime) and it doesn’t matter when you undertook the project, be it, recently or not so recently. Bring the evidence and share the secrets of how you did or if you’re looking for how too pointers come and ask the folks who’ve done it!
