What year is on the log book of this shell ? There were many differences between the standard saloon and the GT throughout the years.
You can try any scrapyard for an engine, but you need a custom subframe and you still have to lengthen the front end, in most but not all cases. There are some UK firms that specialise in the conversion, but it isn't cheap, there may also be insurance issues.

The main differences between the 79 Clubman and the GT would be that the GT was running 12 inch Denovo wheels and had 8.4 inch disc brakes at the front and spacered drums at the rear.
In 1979, 2 black door mirrors and roof gutter trim were standard fitment.
By 79 interiors were standard across all the Clubman range but the GT still had the extra rev counter in the 3 clock behind the wheel binnacle which the standard Clubman never had.
