From 1964, Chrysler 8 Cylinders, 330 HP.
Not the kind of cars I expected from Jensen.

This was the car…

…that ‘made’ Jensen (Classic Car magazine has just published a retrospective of the three model series). All fibreglass body. Serious grunt! And any Frenchman wondering about the front end needs to remember the Facel Vega. 😀 What’s not to love? Cheers, pp...
