Piper GTT

            ntroduced at the 1967 Racing Car Show the prototype Piper GT, styled by Tony Hilder, was based around a tubular backbone spaceframe chassis, with fibreglass bodywork. This innovative sports racer was sold as a chassis / body unit to which Austin-Healey Sprite, Hillman Imp or Ford running gear could be fitted. A former customer turned business partner, Brian Sherwood convinced Piper to produce a fully trimmed road-going version of the GT. Christened the GTT, the resultant machine was notably lightweight and aerodynamic, extracting supercar performance from the most mundane of mechanical components. Whilst the Piper factory produced some fully-built cars in-house, much of production was supplied for self-build.

Pipers carry a certain cache in historic racing circles – everyone knows that they are capable of being very quick and their comparative rarity finds favour with organisers of historic events – opening the doors to high-end race meetings.
