Not really a regular poster on here, but I may be now I have something to post about! Here's my Austin 1300, picked up on Saturday. Needs a few bits and bobs sorting, but anyways: ![](http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6011/5964047035_70d25e79bd_z.jpg) ![](http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6125/5964606912_f4014a54dd_z.jpg) The standard exhaust will be going back on, this one is way too loud. ![](http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6138/5964052425_be834b7399_z.jpg) And I'll be putting an original dash back in it. Should keep my quiet for a day or too...

Thanks for the replies.
It was resprayed in 2008 or 9, not quite sure and then the owner sold it to buy an LPG powered Daimler. I bought it from the chap he sold it to.
The colour is Suzuki Quasar metallic blue. It needs a few bits doing to it, I've just taken the dash out and the wiring is in a right state. Need to track down a replacement dash, too!
The front passenger wing is a little bit crispy, so I've bought a replacement one in case the one on the car isnt worth saving once I start poking at it!

Very nice. Got a soft spot for these as my dad had one in period which he sent to Speedwell to do their thing. One day, I may be tempted to try and recreate a Speedwell 1300GT! Loads of potential with yours....
