The Jensen Owners' Club

Hi guys, THANK YOU all so much for your comments about the tires. Here is a photo of the car taken in July when I bought it. Richard Calver very kindly sent me a photo of the original color of the car in 1971, which was METALIC FAWN,here is a photo of an FF in the same color. The tires on this FF ar...

Dear Members, I recently purchased a third Interceptor a MK2 yeh ! The car came with MK3 rims and tires. The owner gave me the 4 original rims which had been sitting in a shed for 10 years which were pitted and lightly rusty, I had them polished and repainted and they came out very nice. The MK3 rim...

Dear Steve Payne,Frankoid,Lawson,Jvcarrier,

Thanks for all your comments !

So as the interior is all black, then I will have the new roof liner made in black
as it would stand out to much if it was white.

Have a great weekend !

Cheers Steven.

Thanks Richie and Martin for your kind comments !

Regards Cheers Steven.

Dear Members, Good morning from LA ! Here are the two seats given to me last week by a kind collector. I spent 4 hours cleaning them and restoring them and cannot believe how they turned out !!! The black leather seats in my MK3 were redone by the previous owner in vinyl horrible, so now I can repla...

Dear Members,

Did the head liner on the MK2 and MK3 only come in white ?

Even though the car had a black leather interior or could you request black at the time ?

Cheers Steven.

Good morning from no fires down the street any more Los Angeles ! One of my Interceptors is parked within half a mile of the Santa Clarita fire ! My 62 Buick Convertible is parked half a mile from the Pacific Palisades fire ! It may be time to re think my storage locations lol. Regarding the seat si...

Thanks guys for all your comments !

Of course I will re-do the seats as original, but sadly a little to plain.

Unless one adds the piping, to break up the boring plain look, like this one I saw on line.

Just a thought ?

Cheers Steven.

Dear Members, Yesterday while visiting the DMV here in Los Angeles,parked in the parking lot was an older Jaguar. I believe the car was a two door coupe imported from Europe and someone had chopped the top off the car and made it into a convertible ? Anyway, I waited 30 mins for the owner who never ...

Thanks guys for all your amusing license plate responses ! California has become a Communist State where freedom of expression is curtailed by people that hate self expression and prefer group thought. That said, I have come up with a compromise for a license plate. When I receive the new plates I w...

Dear Colin 7673, I did exactly that, sent a photo of the UK plates plus a photo of my drivers license showing my initials SMD and they still said no. No use of SMD in the future. Dear Dave C, I have a can of flat black paint, good idea. Dear Chris R, I thought SMD 1 may be a little pretentious and s...

Dear Members, I applied for some California plates in black and yellow, months ago. I thought how about my initials SMD and say 3 numbers 100 and K for 1972 so we have SMD100K ! The DMV refused my plate number saying it was offensive ? After a few letters going back and forward, I can not have my in...

Great times !!!

Dear Chris R, Grant, Rocky, Frankoid,John W, THANK YOU for all your comments. Hi Andy, Good morning, I thought that may be you. You and I go back a long way nearly 40 years to when you opened the first pub, I was there opening night and many nights afterwards ! I apologize, as I thought by your earl...

Dear Kenny 38, THANK YOU for clarifying your comments and as you are an Australian say no more mate ! Dear Rocky, Thanks for your insight, the one Jensen going to the paint shop in AZ is it brown ?
