Title: Green Invader Project
Post by: gixxer6 on May 05, 2024, 08:05:56 AM

Here’s my latest project…. It’s an 80’ Invader 440 with the lightweight 78 hood.  I picked the hood up locally that had been freshly painted green with a heavy silver flake (the pictures don’t do it justice).  I had custom decals made, they are 78 Invader decals but all solid black. 

I just finished my least favorite part of a restoration, the rear skid….  New bearings, slides, all cracks welded, and powder coated.  A shout out to Interceptor398 for supplying better-than-new cross shafts with spiral cut grease grooves.  I also replaced the front limiter strap shaft with steel for added strength.
