Would have to be off one of the australian built capri convertibles wouldn't it? Never seen one of those badges though.
US market badge perhaps? We did export them there. |

I don't believe that that Capri script was ever used on the Aussie built Convertible model, only on the earlier Mk.1 models. Perhaps it was for the UK Crayford convertibles?

That double humped thing is called a Capote. As far as I can tell that is probably off one of the earlier model Capris. Not the 1989 to 1994 Convertibles.

Capote's were fitted to the 1989 to 1994 Capri's as a bolt on extra. Not standard. You can not fit a hard top to a Capri that has a Capote fitted.
