Unfortunately, not every cool car makes it to America, and this rare Ford is no exception. But that doesn't mean it can't be admired by petrolheads everywhere.
The winning bid was £74,250, not only over its pre-sale estimate of £60k but also eclipsed the previous record amount paid for a Ford Capri by a staggering £20k.
