Inspired by the success of the Mustang 'pony car' in the USA
Ford introduced the Capri
'The car you've always promised yourself'
to the European market in 1968. Ford was pursuing a wide-ranging competitions programme at this time
and with its UK operation concentrating on developing the Escort for rallying and circuit racing
Jochen Neerpasch
head of the Motorsport Department in Cologne
was delegated to start work on the racing Capri. Known as the 'RS2600'
this would be based on the 2600GT
Ford of Germany's top-of-the-range model at the time
although Cologne's first efforts involved modified 2300GTs. Equipped with Weslake-developed
fuel-injected engines and up-rated suspension
the first production RS2600s rolled off the Cologne production lines in September 1970
all left-hand drive and destined for sale in Europe
In Group 2 racing trim the RS2600's Weslake-developed V6 engine was bored out to 3.0 litres and equipped with Kugelfischer fuel injection and dry sump lubrication
in which form it developed in excess of 320bhp. The suspension
brakes and wheels were up-rated appropriately and the bodywork lightened by the extensive use of glassfibre panels. A ZF five-speed gearbox was standard equipment on the racing RS2600
the LHD-only production version
which retained the 2.6-litre engine
having to make do with a Ford four-speed unit. On the racetrack
the RS2600's finest achievement came in 1972 when works driver Jochen Mass
later to enjoy a successful Formula 1 career
was crowned European Touring Car Champion at the season's end. These Capris were raced in all kinds of championships and events including the Le Mans 24-hour Race
the Spa Francorchamps 24 Hours
the Tourenwagen Meisterschaft
and Tour de France Auto
The car offered here is an original V6-engined Capri with manual gearbox
which was delivered new in Europe in 1972. It was fully restored and built to 'RS' rally/race specifications in 2017 with build costs of over 70,000. Specification highlights include a wide body to 'RS' specification
