I found a dusty Ford Capri abandoned in barn

A TIKTOKER has given his rusty old motor a new lease for life after a near-complete refurbishment.

The renovation – documented by @saundersdetailing – is tracking the transformation of the Ford Capri from a dusty vehicle to a gleaming motor ready to be sold.

The opening clip reveals the messy car which has been sat idle for 16 years.

In the following video, Saunders Detailing return the Capri to the firm’s headquarters where the boys begin to pre-wash and then thoroughly rinse the grimy automobile – before giving the classic Ford a shampoo and rinse to surrender the remaining specks of dirt.

The experienced tradesmen then degrease the bronzed engine and the underneath.

In the third instalment, the team get to work unsticking the brakes, pumping up the tyres and dragging the vehicle from the barn it was sat in.

The Ford’s interior is then tended to – where mould has taken over following years of inactivity.

The motor is then hoovered, sanitised, and has its carpet drill-brushed to abate the pungent smell caused by the mould.

Refurbished Ford Capri’s can be sold for up to £40k.

Three parts have been released, with a fourth soon to be uploaded, and has already attracted over 200k likes from users.

Viewers of the trilogy paid tribute to the taxing renovation effort.

One said: “Awesome work, it’s starting to look good.”

Another doubled down: “Fantastic. Inspiring. Satisfying too.”

Others were excited at seeing what the final product will look like.

“Hurry up for part 4 I’m amazed by this”, one wrote.

Another chimed in: “Can’t wait for part 4.”
