Jensen H-Type

The Jensen H-Type was a series of cars introduced in 1938. The H-Type was powered by a <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/nash/">Nash</a>-sourced 4.2L inline eight engine, and offered in saloon, drophead coupe, fixed head coupe, and sports tourer body styles. Although most examples were RHD, a special one-off was built in LHD. This car is also notable as it was the only example built with a <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/lincoln/">Lincoln</a> V12 engine. As these cars were built during wartime, production was limited, and only 15 examples are believed to have been built before the model was discontinued in 1945.

Jensen C-V8

The Jensen C-V8 was a range of grand tourers that were introduced for the 1963 model year. The C-V8 was offered as a rear wheel drive four seat coupe, although two open top versions were built, one a Sedanca with a folding roof over the front seats, and one a full convertible. These drive cars were initially powered by a Chrysler-sourced 5.9L V8 engine, but starting in 1964, a larger 6.3L V8 unit was used. These engines were paired with both manual and automatic transmissions, and sent power to the rear wheels. The C-V8 was built in three evolutions: Mk I (1963), Mk II (1964-1965), and Mk III (1966). A total of 500 examples were built before production of the Jensen C-V8 ended in 1966.

Jensen FF

The Jensen FF was a series of sports cars introduced for the 1967 model year. The FF shared much of its appearance with the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/jensen/interceptor/2nd-gen/">Jensen interceptor</a>, but was not only longer, but very different mechancially, with the most important difference being the FF&#39;s four wheel drive system. This all wheel drive system was developed by Ferguson Research, leading to the FF&#39;s name (Ferguson Formula). Jensen offered the FF as a two door, four seat coupe powered by a 6.3L V8 engine. Due to problems in converting the cars to LHD, the FF was not available in North America. Production of the Jensen FF lasted until 1971, with only 320 examples built.
