Depends on the condition of the car, otherwise... if there's little or no
rust, shop around for a good straightener.

They CAN get the car lined up better than SOME came off the line.


But if there's a lot of rust or other damage, sell the parts.
I wouldnt go to the trouble of swapping a bunch of 82 drivetrain and trim
into a 92... It wouldnt be a Capri anymore even IF the rear sheet metal was
the same...the real intrinsic value would be lost anyway.

Believe me, I've done a lot of swap-ins and swap-outs ..and that's too much
work for the satisfaction later
