I'm looking for a little project to keep me going until the warmer weather

Ideally a shell that's ready for paint or already painted and mechanical assembly needed would be perfect

I'd love a 1275 GT or clubman that I could make into a look a like. Or an estate/countryman. In both cases the older the better

Not interested in total resto, odd engines, massive body kits or anything after about 1990

As local as possible to chester, I don't have the means to collect over more than a mornings travel (round trip) so that's about 75 mike radius

Slim pickings I guess but if there's a god someone will have a 1275 gt painted in black just needing assembly, they'll be about 10 miles away, have all the parts to re assemble and willing to sell for about £1500. And it'll be from 1973!

Cheers

"And it'll be from 1973" :) Good luck.

 

Hope you do find one, what is your proper budget?

I'd love to but he's not got in touch for 3 days so I'm guessing he's not too keen

Give him a nudge if you're able

Cheers
