Barn Find Ford Capri Mk1 in London

Barn Find Ford Capri Mk1in London. Welcome to a new barnfind episode, where Jonny Smith helps to dig out a 1972 mk1 Ford Capri that has been sat since the early 1980s. Bought new by the owner's Godmother, this mk1 classic Ford didn't have an easy life, but it has been preserved inside a dry garage for decades. Question is, will it run?
