I want a clubbie too but I wouldn't ruin it with wide arches and big wide wheels. Sorry to anyone that likes that look. Not me.

If its a genuine 1285 GT, Clibman front and put the correct engine in it. Sell that if you do t want it and then modify something else.

I had a project car, and it was only after I sold it that I realised the shell was actually a GT. I was gutted as I sold it for bugger all really, and I think the guy was going to do a roof chop on it :(

I've really warmed to the clubby now. I've seen some gorgeous examples posted up so this makes me more determined to get another back on the road, albeit with a different engine setup.

Thanks for the input guys :highfive:

I agree,

If you really don't like the clubby look (which I happen to love! )
Either sell the project to someone who does and get a roundnose project,
Or restore it as a 1275gt and then sell it to buy something else! :-)

But it's nice to see you've warmed to the clubman look... :D
