1981 Leyland Clubman 1275GT

1980 Mini Classic Mini 1275GT Additional Info:

Hello everybody! I'm selling my 1981 Leyland Clubman 1275GT. I'm selling it cause I've got a few projects and could just use the money to finish them up. Then I'm coming back to buy another Mini! A little bit about the car - I bought it from a guy in Long Island who used to import Mini's with his friend from overseas. I think the car could possibly be from Australia as it was originally a right hand drive, but I'm not positive. It has a few little spots of rust, but if you know anything about classic Mini's you'll know this is an extremely solid body! It has seats out of an Acura Integra which are comfortable and provide a great amount of support (I do have the original interior! It's in rough shape though). I also have a brand new walnut dash and 3 gauge cluster that I haven't yet installed.
Other things that have been done are it has 12 inch Alloy Rims, new wheel arches as the old ones were getting faded, I fully rebuilt the brakes with new seals rotors and pads, the valve lash has just been adjusted, it's got brand new headlights, a brand new alternator belt, and probably the biggest item on the list - it was just professionally jetted and tuned by a shop that specializes in these old British and Import cars. That alone cost me almost a grand!
This car is super fun to drive and gets waves everywhere you go. It's rare to find a classic Mini, even more rare to find a Clubman, and even MORE rare to find a 1275GT. You can email me and I'll be responding as soon as I can! :-)
I'm looking to get $8,900 or best reasonable offer. I've lowered the price a significant amount because I'm looking to get rid of this soon!
