article in Old Cars on the Capri Guardsman

Post by 75coug »

There is an interesting article in the 12/28/06 issue of Old Cars on a special Mercury Capri that was called the Capri Guardsman. I had never heard of such a thing, and the article makes for good reading.

I got that literature I posted a short time back.

It was just an autoshow car it seems kind of dolled up.

75Coug, when did you get this magazine? Is it still on the newstand?

I'd love to get a copy or at least purchase the one you have....or just get a good photocopy since it's not in color.

I ran accross that 1sheet paper and the photos on ebay a while back and was dumbfounded. Probably one of my favorite lit pieces since it is so darn oddball.

I considered posting it in the asc Discussion section originally, but I figured that it technically did not belong there, and I did not want to run afoul of the rules. That being said, I am pleased that it is being moved.
