Great lines5th December 2007  Complete running and driving Gilbern GT.  It's an early car with a three bearing MGB 1800 engine so there are no heavy window frames and it has a nice number plate.  This four seater sports car could do well in the FIA, HSCC, Classic Sports Car Club and Equipe GTS arenas.  This is the most complete Gilbern GT we've ever seen!  It runs, drives and even the brakes work ... the chassis needs attention though.

The paintwork is not perfect!  Front bumper is missingExcellent oil pressure

Nice interior with that rare thing - a rear seat!And a decent boot, to boot!

Complete car including leather trim and excellent wire wheelsSept 2006

19?? Gilbern GT

Many people have asked over the years "What four seater sports cars are there?" ... often after they realise that a Ginetta G21 has only two seats.  There is not much to choose from after the Lotus Elan +2 and its rear seats are pretty tiny, the larger Gilberns, Scimitars, MGB GTs et al are allA period pic really Grand Touring cars but the Gilbern GT, despite it's name, has the potential to be definitely sporty ... and it looks like an Ashton Martin!

We have a complete car including full leather trim fully dismantled ready for restoration.  Excellent wire wheels, a big history file and aThe stripped body shell choice of an early 1800cc engine with overdrive gearbox or a later set up.

June: Stripped body shell revealing that all the fibre glass is in good condition.  Exshellent!

1963 Gilbern 1800 GT

This would make an excellent historic race car and would be1963 Gilbern 1800 GT welcomed in the CSCC, HSCC and Equipe GTS series as well as the European series.  It is very light and uses the MGB engine and gearbox.  The body shell is very sound with the floors removed to facilitate chassis repairs.  New chassis sections are included.  Late 1800 MGB engine with carbs and overdrive gearbox, full set of MGB Rostyle wheels, two new Minilite style wheels with new tyres and a further two to match can be supplied at cost.  Original wiring loom, dash anFront viewd glass still fitted; most of the trim is missing but then it's not needed for a race car.  We are happy to undertake as much of the chassis/bodywork/race preparation as you want.  Did we say this car is very light?  We think it looks rather like a mini Ashton Martin.

Floor removed for chassis work  A bag of bits  Trim is missing
