This is a photograph taken at a car show showing two framed vintage Mercury Capri dealership promotional posters displayed in front of a Fox-body Mercury Capri with its hood raised, alongside a 'Reserved Capri Parking Only' novelty sign. The left poster is a Ford Motorsport / Lincoln-Mercury / Motorcraft piece titled 'Mercury Capri... Performance On or Off the Track,' featuring portraits of Trans-Am race drivers Tom Gloy (#7), Greg Pickett (#63), and Willy T. Ribbs (#64) and artwork of three Motorcraft-sponsored Capri race cars. The right poster is a dealer showroom advertisement for the Capri Turbo RS promoting two free-options offers: a VIP Package (buy tinted glass for $110 and receive five additional options free — rear defroster, interval wipers, light group, tilt steering wheel, AM/FM stereo radio — total value $574, savings $464) and a T-Roof Package (buy the T-roof, list price $1,074, for $930 and receive six additional options free — total value $1,648, savings $718). A reader can learn the specific option-package pricing incentives offered on the Capri Turbo RS and the identities of Mercury's factory-backed Capri race drivers of that era.
