The restoration of the White Lady

Post by Joerg »

EA 7000 - the White Lady and grandmother of all Jensen sailed from England to Canada during the winter of 1957.
It spent most of the last 60 years in a dry garage awaiting a never really startred restoration. Today the return trip was booked.

I am so glad to see progress on this car, and from what I'm seeing it is in the best hands! :)

My grandfather was the one to ship it over to Canada in the 50's. I never thought I would see it restored.
