I don't think we have that particular break out on this site.

What you have there is something Sandy sent to Hank years ago and we mostly just refer to that over at ascmclaren.com.

Thanks for clearing that up.I spent about 2 hours going thru posts trying to locate it.My car is the 1 of 1 black on black with beige interior.
I figured since the forum web address was attached it was shared from here.
Sandy must have been quite a thorough and knowledgeable man to have accumulated such a treasure trove of information.
Reading his posts has been very helpful to me and I really appreciate the comradery of the forum.
Now if I can only come up with the money to buy the parts I need to restore my car to look as good as it runs.
My windshield frame is broken and my latching mechanism is broken for the top in the rear.
Hoping to meet up with fascat or Coco Loco sometime and see how this is supposed to be set up and work.I have a switch and wire in the trunk on drivers side that is nothooked up and assume it is a safety switch of some sort.

I have a whole bunch of wiring info courtesy of Henry. What year is your car? The biggest problem with wiring, especially in the Capris, is that they were all basically hand made and no two seem to be the same. I think they just used whatever color wire they had around. And the documentation is very limited. I might be exaggerating a bit, but it can get frustrating. The three of us should get together sometime soon. We're only about 1 to 2 hours apart.

I'll dig through my papers next week sometime and see if there is something you might be interested in.

Check out Henry's site, ascmaclaren.com. Lots of info including the link you have, which takes you directly to that site. If you go to the home page, scroll down to PRODUCTION FIGURES and click. Then go to bottom of that page and all the years have an image link. I believe all the figures were compiled by Sandy.

Thanks for the help everybody. Finally got my title today from New Hampshire and it is messed up. Car is 56,000 original miles and box is checked to indicate mileage exceeds mechanical limits!
PA is a stickler on titles and I know that this destroys the value of my car if it is titled as over 100,000 miles. Dealership is to send me a document that they made a mistake. Auto Check report shows actual miles in 98 were 37,000 and car was out of service from 1998 to 2008
I am second owner on it need to find a way to contact original owner.
His name is Homer Bowens and bought at Miller Ford Fairfield CT all registration events occurred at Monroe CT.
Any help would be appreciated.

My car has ~80k original.

The DMV didn't give a tulips. They wouldn't even put the mileage down and marked the box anyways.

Anyone who devalues a car based on that mark on the title is not very bright.

Keep all the paperwork though it's still useful to have a documented history.
