Correct, It's a Jenson. The FF models were also Awd.

 

Wow... that looks nice...

 

There's also a hardtop coupe version of this car. I caught one tooling around Tempe many months ago. The 'vert is definitely the looker of the two IMO. The coupe roof just has a strange shape to it.

 

Jensen it is, small British company that started production with Austin in-line 6 cyl 4 litre engine. When the car was introduced here in USA they fitted Mopar 6.2 litre engine with 325 hp. Car was capable of reaching 60 in 7sec and doing flat out 135 mph. Probably the most innovative car of the era, it featured 4wd, disc brakes on all four corners with mechanical anti-lock system. It all came to an end due to the fuel crisis in 1974 because gas guzzling Mopar engine(10 mpg), and company went bankrupt in 1976!

weren't all Jensen's automatic though??? kind of like those stupid "briklins"..... neat idea, but who the hell wants an automatic?

 

Yup, they all used a Chrysler 727-B Torqueflite, and a Dana 60 rear axle. The British had to use something reliable to go with the prince of darkness electrics. The Clutch pedal feel on A-833 4 speeds was a bit "heavy" for the British motoring crowd.
