Interesting find...

Excepting that sail panel applique, I see them as 1984 & early to mid 1985 CAPRI parts. No doubt about it. Musta been some guys's job to chuck 'em out and he chucked 'em in the back of his pick up by mistake

Too bad he didn't think enough of them to at least COVER THEM !

What should also be there would be left & right door glass. You're not gonna see any dome lights or headliners or interior roof finishing mouldings as those were laser'd off WITH the roof. The Speedometer confuses me, though. Far as I know ascMcLaren didn't change them on the 'Verts .... or did they? (and) Why ? Somewhere there are piles of take off wheels & tires and interior door panels, and hatch area interior panels / speakers. They'll show up in 2032 !

Sandy, he says he has door panels....

The wheels and tires are probably gone...or sold...too big and bulky to keep for long. Wives don't like piles of stuff like that....too hard to stuff under beds and in attics

Don't speak of what you have no experience in !

'Ya, I knew he had door panels.....But why does he have Speedos ?????

This stuff is definately from1984 / 1985 as the only interior colors
that were offerred then were Regatta Blue & Sand Beige. However,
later on IN 1985, Charcoal joined in....

Charcoal,canyon red, desert tan and academy blue was available
in 84...
Regatta blue was available in 85. But,only on the GS. Sand beige,
charcoal and canyon red were 85-86..

McLaren Spec cars got different items.
1984s made to be 'Verts got ONLY the
Desert Tan OR Academy Blue interiors.

1985s made to be 'Verts only got
Regatta Blue OR Sand Beige. I do
realize that the Regatta Blue was
only on the GS; but D32 ascMcLaren
Spec cars were allowed the Regatta Blue.
The Dash was Regatta Blue with RS
Fascias and the door panels were the
GS ones in Regatta Blue and were
further customized by ascMcLaren.

Charcoal was added during the 1985 run.
Canyon Red was not used by ascMcLaren,
in the Capri(s).

Would love to see a close up of the window sticker. I see a code on there that I do not recognize V18 or V1B. Followed by the word "code" but the rest is blurred by refliction. I see a credit delete on the stereo and A/C included. The unknown codes would be so kool to know...I got to thinking, ASC threw out 552 bubble hatchs complete with windows with defroster wires, 1,104 Bucket Seats (except for a handful of 6-Cyl cars that kept the original seats), 552 center consoles, 552 pairs (1,104 singles) Seat belts/holders, 552 Ash Trays and God knows what else. How about 2,208 1984-1986 302 V8 wheels ?

Sandy, did asc get Ford to delete anything like the bubble hatches, etc? Seems like such a waste to put them on.

50Dan, I'll send you an email. I'd like to get a Window Sticker if possible.

No, bubble hatchs had to remain for enclosure to the elements, outdoors where they stayed.
