Believed to be one of the last GTs sold in Australia, we have a copy of this vehicle's original purchase receipt - which shows a sale date of April 1973, at $2,799.40 (AUD). On an old forum where this car was found, the members noted that the engine number quoted on the receipt was actually 100 units higher than the engine number they had sighted on this car - explaining the difference in this car's details. The engine number we have provided above is accurate.

Not much else is known about the car, but it's fascinating to have its original delivery information and sale price in 1973. Interestingly, the car also had a radio installed by the dealer, evidenced by the receipt attached in the images.
