"1974 Mk III Jensen Interceptor for sale:



RELISTED DUE TO TIME WASTER AND PAYPAL SCAMMER FROM ALLEDGED SPANISH ADDRESS (THANK YOU ALON*O) - LOOKING TO CHEAT YOU VIA PAYPAL AND PAYING THEM SHIPPING MONEY SEE BELOW from lovely S*r*h K - all BS  - I WILL NOW BOYCOTT SPANISH GOODS (ACCEPT FOR WINE OF THE TEMPRANILLO GRAPE FROM THE RIOJA AND RIBERA DEL DUERO REGIONS !) 


"I have just made the payments and PayPal emailed me confirming this. And am very sure a confirmation/Notification would have been sent to your paypal email (my address) by paypal. PayPal said that they would be holding the money i sent because of the excess payments that i made which was the money for pick up. i will need you to proceed and send the pick up fees of $2. 00. 00 to my pick up agent  to enable them make a booking for the picked up of the bike.  S**ah K*k*  'BE WARNED'--I THINK THE WORD BIKE WAS A NICE ONE!




I won't bore you (again) with the history of this car because if you are reading this you know what you are looking at.  Need to sell as I just don't have the electrical expertise or time to put this lovely car (and dream of mine) back together. I will give you an honest overview of the car and some of the various spares that I have. due to squirrelling away things over the years.  I have duplicates and sometime triplicates of things– I'm ideally looking to sell the lot and not split it up. The only thing that this car does not have is the flywheel – yes the guy I entrusted with the car to get the electrical sorted lost it. plus gave me the car back in a worst condition than when I handed it over to him!  The dashboard has been reconditioned and is loosely in place right now. The instruments all worked when car was running prior to engine out. clock might not be working?.

 

Car itself. solid and basically rust free and no previous signs of welding haven taken place. I have all the inner wheel arch splash panels to go back on the car. The back of the car has got a couple of  dings. and the passenger door has had  a sad case of an industrial garbage  truck thrashing. see pictures but crease line is still good.  All doors close nicely with a  clunk. and shut lines are good.  Windows opened and closed when I first got the car. so they should work when all is put back together.  Windscreen wiper motor will need installing (and it was this that started the engine removal!). The car will need putting back together and I would suggest that unless you are a wiz on electrics (this was my nemesis) then buy some new wiring looms for engine bay and dash. and be done with it. as on reflection this is what I should have done years ago. but I was talked out of it by "Mr ‘x' I lost your flywheel garage owner smoothie".

The car was originally sold at legendary Hollywood Sports Car dealership in Hollywood and I believe that the car has never been out of California but off the road. hence new plates [MY74440]– I have the original car manual plus others – see pictures.  I have receipts and bills going back to 1977 where you can clearly see the historical ownership. Car has 77. 00 on the speedo and I see no reason why this is not correct going by all the receipts but cannot guarantee it. Possibly three owners including myself

 

I have over 12K into this car and we all know how much they have gone up in value over the past 3-4 years – I'm not greedy just want to see what I can realize from this broken dream. and I don't (WILL NOT) break the car up for parts which people appear to be asking silly prices for on e-bay.  

 

Some of the additional parts I have were off a same year car. same color as well and that particular car is now  being used as a drag racer (great guy though)!

Extra bumper over riders – 3 Ok. one looks like a dog had a go at it – surprised he caught the car must have been a greyhound I guess. as I don't think that this car has been to the Serengeti.

If more detailed pictures are needed on any specific items then let me know.

 

Naturally it's all sold as is. but I would encourage you to view the car yourself as I don't want to inadvertently mislead anyone on this.  Please call my cell once contact is made. and if I don't answer I will get back to you as soon as I can.  Yes. I'm open to offers. and when I feel that this number is about right then the ‘old' lady will go (no not the wife she's a keeper).
