1972 Gilbern Invader Estate, complete For Sale
Pictures taken 30/ 06/ 2021 as it arrived by covered trailer from storage in Leicester, as in picture one.
Gilbern Invader Mark 2 Estate, for sale as recommissioning project
White paintwork, fibreglass in excellent condition, good news, just found file for car that includes photographic evidence showing extensive chassis repairs by Gilbern expert including replacement sills sections hence discolouration in those areas and that the sill plates are still off.
Black vinyl roof with excellent webasto sliding roof.
Very rare, sought after historic car, Built in WALES, one of only 68 examples.
First registration date shown on the V5 18-02-1972, historic vehicle so free tax, exempt from MOT, not that it's got one. Been off the road since May 1996.
Last MOT'd on the 20th of January 1992.
I bought this car in May 2009, collected from barn in Lincoln, then straight into storage with Chris Smith Gilbern expert.
The V5 shows chassis number IN1327. Registration TRA 500K.
Car first owned by an Royal Airforce Pilot, who initiated some changes such as remote oil filter, higher water filler and thermostat, bigger radiator with a higher ground clearance, dual cooling fans, stainless steel manifolds, improved heater system, electronic ignition, the modified bonnet air intake and so on.
Second owner ( area organiser for the wonderful Gilbern Owners Club ) bought in May 1996, he had it delivered at which point he drove down his long drive crashing into a gate post which necessitated in the front end being renewed, it is at this point restoration was started with that front end repair, dash out and re-veneered, all chassis work completed , sills replaced and body put back together, door cards off, it must be that other projects got in the way.
So I am the third owner, this is a wonderful opportunity for a Gilbern enthusiast.
The brakes have been removed, can organise delivery.
