Hi all,

As the title says I am looking for a 1275 GT in Inca Yellow. I am based in Essex and willing to travel almost anywhere if the car is right! Not looking for a perfect original and dont mind minor mods.

I will be visiting all the shows looking for a 1275 GT and hope to find something soon. If you have this particular car and are looking to sell, drop me a PM on here or email etc and I will get straight back to you.

Cheers


James

I will be visiting MITP on Sunday and hope to see a few Inca Yellow 1275GT's around. Thought I would print out something like " I am interested in buying your car - call me on xxxxxxx or email on xxxxxx etc" and tuck it under the windscreen wiper :)

Does this float you boat?

Not a GT but tax exempt.

The attached pictures is more my bag, but i mught have to resign to buying an 1100 Clubman and turning it into a fake 1275GT. Only difference is what it says on the log book, but would prefer to have an original if possible :)

the only problem with doing that is........that if people think that you are desperate to buy their car then they will inflate the price and you could end up paying way too much.

Hi Oltonlad,

Sure I understand where you are coming from and I am not desperate, just lookiong for the right car :) I am in two minds about which way to go, one that is tidy and drive away or a resto. I just dont see that many 1275GT Incas about, do I go for the original or just fake it :/

I would never pay over the top and hope to find something soon, just got to choose my direction.

the yellow one parked next to the green one in your pic was my old gt that i pulled from a field in leicester and rebuilt.There is a rebuild thread on here.I have a few more gt's awaiting my attention

[jcoops]

Ah cool GT and good to hear you are still working on new projects :), so what you got lined up at the moment - anything that I might be interested in :)

[baggy33minis]

rebuilding 2 coopers at the minute,but hoping to move onto the gt's after that.I have a rare tara green gt.Never seen another gt in this colour .It was stored for fourteen years so in reasonable condition.

[jcoops]

Baggy33minis - The GT's you have planned - for you or to sell?

Mk3 Cooper S - you never come back to me or emailed me anything?

[baggy33minis]

i just do them and sell them on after a few months .I just like restoration.I must be mad!!!

[jcoops]

Well the search continues and nothing has cuaght my eye just yet. Perhaps I am justbeing to specific, but I just don't see they type of 1275 GT come up that I want :/. I considered buying a differnet colour, but I just can't do it lol.

If i ever purchase or find an Inca Yellow 1275 GT, I will make sure a phot goes up here straight away :)
