In this Larry Chen video, we witness a group of German car enthusiasts showcasing their jaw-dropping modified Ford Capri, courtesy of Holy Hall. This isn't your average build; it's a showstopper, a head-turner, a car that demands attention. The team behind this project consists of a fabricator, a cameraman, and a technical genius, each playing a crucial role in bringing this retro-style race car to life.
Under the hood lies an LS1 engine, chosen for its reliability and cost-effectiveness, a departure from the original turbo engine. The design of this beast features custom fiberglass body parts meticulously crafted for perfection. From the rear fender extension to the F40 LM-inspired spoiler, every detail exudes quality and uniqueness. The team faced challenges in sourcing custom 20-inch wheels wrapped in Yokohama slicks, enhancing both the aesthetics and performance of the car.
While maintaining some original elements like headlights and grille, the team added functional air intakes for that extra oomph. The LS1 engine boasts a distinctive exhaust setup, hinting at potential turbo aspirations down the line. The car's sleek black finish was a deliberate choice, aligning with the team's signature style. This build is not just about creating a car; it's a testament to craftsmanship, passion, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of automotive customization.
