Another early 1275GT restored (built 1970 registered Jan 1971)......my brother bought this one off ebay for £800 in 2011, with other Mini projects in progress he did not start the GT restoration until 2015 (with some help and advice from me!) and it is now featured on the front cover of the latest Jan 2018 MiniWorld magazine. It is a close replica of one he owned back in the 1970's with the same period extras, including a sunroof, spotlights & Radiomobile 8-Track stereo...and I insisted he retained the Hydrolastic suspension and sought out the correct 'Prune' coloured 1275GT sidewinder stripes!
