factory pics

Anyone have any factory pictures (inside & outside) of the Jenson Motors LTD factory? Where the babies were born.

Go to norm millers website.. he has some colour pics of the cars being delivered at the ports in the states.. he also probably has the 2 (IIRC) known pics of the cars being built.. they are coming down a track and have guard aprons on.

QUICK SEARCH OF NORMS SITE FOUND THIS on page : http://www.home.earthlink.net/~rootes1/reg1.htm



am sure the other pic of the cars on the production line from the "tiger making of a sports car" book will be somewhere.

You have to look at that photo and wonder -how many of those Tigers shown are now painted red?! Eric

Just last night while channel surfing, I caught a segment of Top Gear, the car show from the UK. They were on a nostalgia tour driving a few old sports cars around to various locations, which included the Jensen Motors Factory in West Bromwich, now abandoned. I am sure you might be able to find the clip somewhere.

OBTW...if you google Jensen Motor factory under images you will find a few generic photos...but no Tigers.

Since I have 2 Jensen Interceptors as well, I am very familiar with the Jensen BB. Some of these guys seem go back to the days when the factory was still open.
