Paul - We keep our eyes peeled open for a suitable GT for you in the hope that one might appear / fit the bill or that you might find one otherwise - plenty of other things happening on here though if you ever need a minor distraction

My aunt died recently leaving an Austin 1300 Automatic. The original registration document, which I have, shows that she bought the car new in 1972. She didn't drive it after 1973 or 1974, since when it was locked in her Surrey garage. The mileage appears to be 13,449.

Is there any market for non-running cars such as this? Any buyer would probably need to collect it.

I have attached some photos.
