The Jensen Interceptor is a Grand Touring Car that was Hand-Built at the Kelvin Way Factory in West Bromwich England
Body designed by an Outside firm, Carrozzeria Touring of Italy
This stylish mid-70's British roadster has an Overhead-Valve Chrysler 440 V-8 with a 4-Barrel Carburetor Under the Hood
All of this Delivers the Manufacturer's Claim of a 7.5 sec 0-60 MPH Time and 135-142 MPH Top Speed
This Model was One of the Last for Jensen Motors Ltd, Jensen had Fallen on Hard Times by 1975, owing to the then World-Wide Recession and Oil Crisis thus its Plant Closed in August 1976 and Production Seized
Unfortunately for Historians, the Paper Trail on Convertibles Runs Remarkably Thin in the Later Period, Chiefly because the Factory was then Operating Under the Exigencies of Receivership but also because Most of the Cars were Exported
The Final Number of Convertibles Produced could turn out to be 512 of all the Years Made, which Makes them Extremely Rare
This Jensen comes with a Complete Service Book, Convertible Top Boot, Jack and Tool Kit.
