Found this little bit of information while looking up Rostyle wheels.
Apparently there was a limited production (about 500) of the Lincoln/Mercury
Capri (1970's) that had Ford authorized V-8's installed. Similar to the Norm
Miller named "African Violets" they were made in South Africa. I thought there
was enough similarities (small sports car, American V-8 engine) between these
cars called "Perana" and our Tiger's for those who take interest in stories of
a like flavor.
