I was ALWAYS Bodie.

My first car was OCC 783S, a 1978 MkII Ford Capri 1.6L, a bit like the one in the pic above, and the older I get the more I have this bizarre desire to get another one. It seems crazy, and perhaps I'm going through some mid-life crisis, but I have a huge file on the pc of Capri photos, Capri contacts, breakers, restorers, cars for sale. I remember picking The Demon up in it for our first date, way back in the 80's. Mine was two tone metallic blue, dark on the bottom light on the top, with a big silver stripe along the side that said 'Capri' at the end. It had Wolfrace 'Slot Mags', whatever they were, and an interior that had a black dash, a red carpet, brown front seats, and blue rear seats. Chicks loved it.

I'm surprised I ever got any sex.
