Dylan McCool’s ABANDONED Mercury Capri TURBO Gets Some Love! Will It Run And Drive After Sitting For 23 Years?


Dylan McCool’s ABANDONED Mercury Capri TURBO Gets Some Love! Will It Run And Drive After Sitting For 23 Years?

Dylan is back at it, with another Ford project. Well Mercury to be exact, but same same. What’s weird is that Dylan really is mostly a Mopar guy but he dabbles in a little bit of everything and has a relatively large collection of Fords at this point too. It’s weird because most guys tend to be stick to one brand, or one family of brands. Like GM, Ford, or Mopar. I know plenty of folks who like them all, but it’s not as common as those of us with one passion. With that said, there are a few cool rides that Dylan has that don’t align with my norm and yet are way cool. Like this four eye Mercury Cougar right here. I love this thing. I’m a fan of four-eye fox body cars in general, but the early turbo cars are particularly cool.

Check this one out and let’s see if Dylan can get it up and running and ready to rock.

Video Description:

We worked around the clock to get this 1979 Mercury Capri Turbo RS up to speed! It needed a ton of work, including going through the brakes and fuel system. We won’t let it stop us from putting it back on the road where it belongs! Think it’ll survive a road trip after 23 years? Stick around to find out!
