The fabulous Jensen CV8, this brought back so many memories! I have lots of information about the Jensen 541S and the CV8, as my wife and I became collectors and at one time we had 8 Jensens! @t I drove our CV8 for over 35 years in the UK, it was a special one-off made for Hardy Amies who designed the interior for the mkIII, but as he preferred the mkII, my car was a mkII with the mkIII interior!
Great stuff,have always loved this car because it is different! That soundtrack! I,m not aware of anyone over here who has modified a CV-8 for competition if so,why not,big Yank V8 in good handling Brit car,the perfect combination.Has anyone done a Gordon Keeble?
Great stuff Peter - We are moving back to Australia and hopefully I'll have my mustang out in about 6 months time to give you some competition :) ... Cheers Bill
Hi Bill, Good to hear your returning but they've split cats 2&3 from classic so we only have a handful of competition, oh, and now you and I give the Mini Coopers a 16 second a minute head start, looks like time to go back to the circuit. Cheers Peter.
Always nice to hear a welltuned, screaming V8 in a nice bodied Coupe.👌😊🏎
Just found this - Great to see it too! We are pleased to have been able to add a link from my website to this video.
Jensen does it!
