Jensen Interceptor Mk3 1974

We have been asked on behalf of the elderly owner who has owned the car for past 6 years his accountant now deceased owned the car for a further 10 years residing in cape town S. A.

She was hardly driven in the past 6 years and exposed to the Sea air as the owner lived opposite the ocean hence the body work deteriorated and the bumpers chrome began to rust though they were re-chromed in 2016.

On the plus side the interior is in good order throughout, the tyres are genuine white walls which was all the rage back in the 70ies.

As for the mechanics the engine gearbox transmission pas exhaust system are in excellent shape the owner has had various new replacements and has provided a up to date list of items that have been changed over the past 4/ 5months included having been serviced

He wishes to find a caring new owner who will bring her back to her former glory and admire and appreciate the beautiful body styling of such a wonderful modern classic V8 2+2 Coupe of its day!!

Oh! dear... What a state - I'd have no idea where to start and that is just the visible bits.

Seams it was dismantled inside for some reason, not too good.

but the Engine looks non-original so that would need correction to bring it to a reliable condition.

The price is optimistic based on condition. But, if someone has another £20k at least then it could become a runner and then some more money to make it look a winner.

At this moment I have to say 50:50 as to restore or part it out ; sorry dear girl !

Given that this car is in South Africa, with skilled inexpensive local labour to make panels and repair and paint, and the local market not so picky about originality, it may just need a picky new owner to supervise the work.
