Jensen 541s

Post by Tom23 »

Hi, Im offering for sale my Jensen 541s as you know its a very rare car with just 127 being built. This car needs recommissioning Its completely original and is an absolute time capsule, the last owner had the car for over 40 years! it was taken off the road in 1978 and dry stored ever since covering just 20,000 miles. The original tax disc is still in the window and I even have the original paper logbook in my possession along with the owners handbook.

I bought this car with the intention of restoring it back to its former glory but to be honest I've got too many other projects on the go and i'm running out of space so unfortunately something has to go.

Underneath the chassis looks very solid, the floor pans, battery tray, fuel tank etc look to be in great condition, the worst bit of rust i found was on the bottom of the passenger door, the drivers side looks as though its been repaired previously.

Im open to sensible offers on this car, if you would like to see any additional pictures of the Jensen or information feel free to email me... tom@autocavallo.co.uk

Thanks

Tom

There is nothing on the car that shows it would need restoration. I hope the new owner would leave as much as is, doing just what is needed to get it running reliably.
The future ain’t what it used to be.

Photo nr. 17 shows fiberglass inner fenders at the rear? Is that original? Never seen that before. The vertical part of the steel rear fenders are double skinned partly and a moisture trap, see photo after sandblasting. A fiberglass cover would surely worsen things :?:
