1980 Mini 1275 GT

It's been a while since one has been added to the register - this one another NZ vehicle with the unique New Zealand stripes. Looks to be mostly there and original (with correctly numbered engine), it does however have a fair bit of rust. A great project, the 1275 GT Minis are becoming a rare classic these days. Hoping someone picks up this bargain. This was originally spotted on trademe.co.nz in June 2019. If you've got a classic 1275GT, sign up and add yours to the register - we'd be interested to hear its story, whether its Euopean, South African or NZ!

At the time the car was advertised, the seller noted:

  • Genuine 1275 motor which has had new rings and bearings.
  • New rear shoes and cylinders within the last 4 months 
  • Master cylinder seal kit done
  • Clutch cylinder seal kit done 
  • Twin carbs 
  • disc brakes - Standard 1275
