My freshly restored GT Junior 1970
Discussion
Thanks
Its an original UK RHD car. It was driven to Denmark in the eighties by an English guy who ended up staying there. He couldn’t register it in Denmark due to the 180% import tax so it was stored for decades. It has just had a full restoration completed today in Denmark by Stelvio

Very nice to see a Step Front GT Junior that hasn't been converted into a GTA look-alike .
That looks like a very thorough restoration.
I think I would have kept it on steel wheels, and are those seats the original style?
The wheels aren't original and neither are the front seats. Also Eibach lowered suspension with yellow KONI's but everything else original spec.That looks like a very thorough restoration.

It will be shipped in a week or so time and then I have to pick it up from the docks at Southampton. Get it MOT'd on the way home and taxed. Probably just after Easter or before would be good. Its still UK registered so should just be a simple case of a change of keeper. It was last taxed in 1983!

Found an interesting website called howmanyleft and it tells me that there are only 37 GT 1300's still registered in the UK. I wonder how many of these are imported or original to the UK
I don't know how it is in the UK, but in Holland the registration agency isn't always the best at getting the models right. In Holland they probably have 10 ways GT 1300 Juniors are registered. So maybe the amount in total is higher?They thought my 1600 TI was a Ti Super... I told them I could only wish for that to be the case
