Interceptor 1 in Qld

Post by ChrisL »

Not for the faint hearted; a big job but compared to some of the rusted out hulks that have been advertised for eye watering money a relative walk in the park...

No vent in the c-pillar, anyone know the chassis number? Could this be a Vignale car?
C-V8 II 104/2146 CHJ 948B
ex FF II, Interceptor I, II and III, SP, GTs and Healeys. You might say I got the bug....

I wouldn't have thought it a Vignale car if it had a C series 383, originally.

INT 2865

Post by Richard Calver »

This is 2865, well documented down under. There was another claim to the 2865 identity in the UK, on ebay in November 2016 and the JOF in July 2017.

http://www.joc.org.uk/Interceptor_Mk_1/115_2685.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I have it listed as scrapped/ in storage. The original 60 photos are still on this link https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/197 ... c-5838.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

DO NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING I PUBLISH; I HAVE CORRECTED THE ERROR - I think

see later posts but 115/2865 is in Australia (Queensland) and 115/2685 is/was in America.

Am I the only one to notice an apparent mixup of numbers? Richard states the car of this thread is 2865, the car referred to on the beverly hills car club link is 2685. It doesn't appear we're talking about the same car. Was there a different claim to the 2865 identity?

Really Steve? I presume that you copied and pasted the email from the seller which states:
The VIN number is (115/2685).

Here's a link to our website with over 60+ photos of this vehicle,

Yes Really

On the LIST PAGE I think I had pointed the hyperlink for the Australian Car (2865) to the American page (2685). I am now creating a page for the Australian Car (2865).

All I had before was that 2865 was in storage in Victoria so, as there were no photos or details, I think I just recorded the chassis number on the List page and inadvertently hyperlinked it to 2685. I hope that is clear :roll:

In the 60 odd photos the only good part looks like the excellent fit of the rear hatch, but it now appears missing, I hope it is still with the car, as the restorer will have to work hard to get close to that fit again.
