The Jensen Owners' Club

Hey 200SX nos, please get in touch. You are clearly interested in these old cars and so are we, so please reply and let's chat?

Hi, I'm the Early Cars Registrar for the club. What did you want to know? Is this your car?

Mike Williams

Thanks for posting the photo Zac.

The car is my 'H' type drophead nearing the end of a four year restoration. Will have to wait another three or four months to see a photo of the whole car!

Han,

If all else fails e-mail me off list and I'll buy one and post it to you. But I don't want to be swamped - please!

The February Automobile is due out on Monday and contains a four page article with no less than 19 photos by our own Richard Calver about his own car. I don't recall seeing another article by Richard in a commercial magazine and its well worth reading - excellent in fact, as always from Richard. Not...

Hi Tim,

Just for the record do you know the chassis number please?

Good luck and welcome to the fold.

Hi thmsshaun, I agree with Richie that you should regularly be able to get high teens from an early 383 Interceptor or CV8.

Dave, Thanks very much for grommets sent - don't have your own e-mail address to hand here at work. Does anyone live near Brighton and feel able to help please? There is a company called "Grommets Ltd" (that's original), at Unit 2, Hollands Lane Industrial Estate, Henfield, West Sussex BN5...

Dave,

I am looking for at least two 1/4 i.d. for bowden cables, one 5/8in i.d. for speedo cable and one 1in i.d for the loom. . . . but any would helo, so yes please!

I am just amazed that they are not available over the counter somewhere.

Isn't it worrying that the fantasy garages of Jensen enthusiasts don't include many Jensens? I'd stay true to the faith and have: S type tourer for fine summer days in the country. H type saloon or PW for formal occasions, or when rain is forecast. Interceptor Coupe for when I'm feeling old and need...

Thanks Alan, I am sure you are correct, but if the proper thing is available I'll try to get hold of them first. Good plan 'B' though! Thanks.

Mike

I need some grommets to go through the firewall of my 1938 Jensen, which is plywood faced with alloy both sides, totalling 1/4in thick. I have found one supplier in USA and one in UK (grommets.co.uk), but both have unrealistic minimum quantities - hundreds of each size! Does anyone know of a supplie...
