My old man is restoring a mk1 atm and he finds most of his capri specific stuff on eBay. Picked up some steel guards a few weeks ago.

Also Yesterford in Melbourne.....

If you are looking for a V6 cross bear in mind the V6 was three-bolts/side Vs 2bolts/side on the 4cyls.....and other structural >> strengthening << differences in the front subframe panels (it's there for a reason !!).
The Essex V6 weighs about double the 1600 Kent motor.
