1973 Leyland Mini Clubman GT

A prospective purchaser pointed out this Australian Clubman GT found for sale here on trademe.co.nz in July 2017. This is believed to be one of around 200 units exported to NZ in January 1973, at the end of GT production.

The price is quite low considering what it is, with reserve met at $4,750 (NZD), and the car appears to be quite complete and original, other than the twin carbies and a few other cosmetic items. We've enquired with respect to the engine number to confirm whether it's original, and should hear back soon, but note that the seller confirmed to our contact that the car did have a fair amount of rust. The car has supposedly been sitting for 20 years, however, has recently had some mechanical work and is now running well.
