Are you sure that the collection is complete now?
There is always room for improvement
Nova, Esperanto, FFF100, P66 to name a few.

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
Come on guys,
there's only one P66, one Early Int with a Hemi, one Nova, one FFF100 and one ugly Esporando ... be real.
I love the P66 but I doubt Mike will let it go.
All 4 are running and will do and have done a few thousand miles every single year. They are automobiles and not immobiles for a museum.
No Int needed - an FF is what I always wanted.

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
Similar to my thoughts - if you have an FF you have the best Jensen and don't need any more (although I still lust after the Nova and would like the FFF100)
Having said that I still want an early FF without the vents in the C-pillar

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
..the best Jensen ( if there is any "best") has a Hemi engine and a manual gearbox
Enjoy them, no matter which one it is!

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
I wonder, say in ten year's time, if people will start converting these "Interceptor R & S" models back to original? Easily done, although getting rid of the IRS may be a problem.Denis wrote:Jens, how about Interceptor R?

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
Yep, thinking same. Much like the conversions that were done. At the time saved cars-now looking back,looks like a crime-despite how good ours were!!
The pukka original in good shape will always be king, long after we are all dust.
Thus has always been so.

Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
I would try to do something, which never being - for example, Mk 1 FF convertible. Not replica, either hotrod. All original parts, simply menace a trois
Love classic cars!
Re: I now have to read 4 Tech Forums (Fori?)
Well it's been done before, albeit a Mk III, more than once.Denis wrote:- for example, Mk 1 FF convertible. All original parts, simply menace a trois
But a Mk I menace a trois?
Now that would be a menace.

build a jensen stationwagon, CV8-FF, with place for 3 children, and you have a buyer... or at least someone who'd like to have one. might look a bit odd come to think of it. i think i'll stick to the subaru.
