Hudson’s pre-war history was also stellar, and its demise was one of those sad stories of the 50’s automobile history.

As has been our tradition for the past several years, FVCC members pitched in on both dates. On Friday night, members Louise and Glen Patterson and John and Connie Waugh handled the check in and weigh in process. Over 40 cars were entered. After the weigh in, cars were “impounded” overnight to await the big races on Saturday. Helping out on Saturday were Jim Binford, Wayne King and Joe Cusimano. Also, assisting were volunteers recruited by Joe for the second year: John Siefert, Lloyd Voorhees and Gary Steres. FVCC helpers selected their favorite car to win a special award. By Jeanne Cusimano Two “Barn” Raisings - One Day! Saturday, November 17th was a very productive day for a team of car club members. It started out with an e-mail call for help by Shoe to see if he could get some guys to help him assemble and raise a cover for his boat. At that same time, Ron realized that help would be needed that same day to raise the newly made walls for the new garage the Mintles are building. So Ron responded that he would help Shoe and at the same time asked if the volun- teers could please first come to his house to help raise the walls. Jeff “Shoe” Schumacher, Chuck Pedigo, Michael McGuire, and Fred Ragland all came to help. As you can see, it was a big job, but we got the walls up in less than an hour, and then we all headed over to Shoe’s with his promise of beer and pizza. (See next page) Two “Barn” Raisings - One Day! Shoe had ordered a cover for his boat, but with his flying bridge, the cover was not high enough. As a result, he had to make additional poles so that it could be raised to cover the boat. And to complicate things, whereas one side of the canopy supports would be on level ground, the other side would be at a higher elevation and on the slope of a hill! With the help of a neighbor and four gardeners, we had a man for each of the 10 poles as we raised and assembled each supporting post. This too was a lot of work and took a bit longer than anticipated, but we got it done! And Shoe made good on his promise of not only beer and pizza, but he also had tri-tip and chicken.

Jensen-Healey Roadster The Jensen-Healey Roadster, an ill-fated attempt to bring back the glory of the Austin Healey sports car, is most notable today as the first production car powered by the advanced Lotus 907 twin-cam aluminum inline-4 engine, even before it was installed in a showroom Lotus. Launched in 1972 as a fast, luxurious and competent convertible sports car, it was positioned in the market between the Triumph TR6 and the Jaguar E-Type. The 50/50 weight balance achieved by the use of the all alloy Lotus 907 engine led to universal praise as having excellent handling. The new 2.0-liter engine was strong and high-revving, but the source of trouble, was with reliability and maintenance issues that doomed the Jensen-Healey to a short existence: 1972- 1976. But there are those survivors that, with proper care and patience, have succeeded in living on as enjoyable and distinctive two-seat convertibles. The oil crisis hit Jensen Motors hard, greatly damaging the sales of its very large V8 Interceptor model and thus degrading its financial condition as a whole. The Jensen GT was then hurriedly brought to market, requiring massive labor expense and taxing the firm’s budget even further. By 1974 Lotus was able to supply the required number of engines and production reached 86 cars a week but despite this, the overall situation proved to be too much for the company, which, amid strike action, component shortages and inflation, proceeded to liquidate in 1975 and then close in May 1976. I went to the liquor store Tuesday afternoon on my bicycle, bought a bottle of Scotch and put it in the bicycle basket. My friend celebrated his birthday As I was about to leave, I thought to myself that if I fell off the bicycle, the bottle would this year by buying an all-terrain break. So I drank all the Scotch before I 4-wheeler. This is a picture of him cycled home. playing with it in his back yard.

  • Le Molte Vite Della TR4, Seconda Parte: TR5, TR250 E TR6
    TRIUMPH IN ITALY www.TriumphInItaly.it Le molte vite della TR4, seconda parte: TR5, TR250 e TR6 Di Aaron Severson Con il debutto della TR4A nel 1965, la Triumph aveva finalmente una sportiva con moderne sospensioni indipendenti che si sposavano bene con il frizzante stile italiano, ma presto venne deciso che la TR aveva bisogno di più potenza, oltre che di un vestito nuovo. Il risultato furono due auto familiari nell’aspetto ma con motori completamente nuovi, seguite dopo meno di due anni da un modello dall’aspetto nuovo con caratteristiche tecniche déjà vu. In questa seconda parte della storia della TR4, tratteremo delle Triumph TR5 PI, TR250 e TR6 prodotte tra il 1968 e il 1976. Foto dell’autore. WASP: SEI NELLA TR4 Nella prima parte di questo articolo abbiamo raccontato le origini e lo sviluppo della Triumph TR4, lanciata nella primavera del 1961 per rimpiazzare la TR3. Nata come un amalgama di diversi studi di stile elaborate da Giovanni Michelotti, la TR4 era essenzialmente una nuova carrozzeria su un telaio TR3 rimaneggiato, modificato con l’introduzione di una carreggiata più larga, uno sterzo a Le molte vite della TR4, seconda parte: TR5, TR250 e TR6 1 TRIUMPH IN ITALY www.TriumphInItaly.it cremagliera e l’adozione come motorizzazione standard del 4 cilindri a valvole in testa da 2.138 cc a camicie umide (“wet-sleeve”) che era opzionale nella TR3. La linea della TR4 e la sua maggiore raffinatezza trovarono una buona accoglienza, ma con parecchi malumori per la guida faticosa e la tenuta di strada incerta sullo sconnesso.

  • Jensen GT De Laatste Der Mohicanen
    Publicatiedatum: 12 september 2002 www.autozine.nl Jensen GT De laatste der Mohicanen Autotest | De samenwerking tussen de legendarische Donald Healey en de firma Jensen bezorgde deze laatste de hoogste productie-aantallen uit de geschiedenis van het merk. De Jensen-Healey cabriolet zou tussen 1972 en 1976 in z'n eentje beter verkopen, dan alle Jensens in de daaraan voorafgaande jaren bij elkaar. En als toetje kwam daar dan in 1975 ook nog eens de Jensen GT bij, waarvan er zo'n 500 de fabriek zouden verlaten. Maar zoals u weet, na het toetje is de maaltijd voorbij. En zo ging het ook met Jensen; in 1976 was de vraag naar Jensens zo ver terug gelopen, dat het bedrijf werd opgeheven. De firma van de gebroeders Allan en Richard Jensen, 541 te vinden zou zijn. Dit was overigens dezelfde Jensen Motors, werd in 1934 opgericht. Daarvoor motor, die vanaf 1948 in de Austin Sheerline en hadden de broers zich al toegelegd op de bouw van Princess werd geleverd. speciale carrosserieën en in eerste instantie zou het bedrijf zich daar ook op richten.

  • Triumph in Italy
    TRIUMPH IN ITALY www.TriumphInItaly.it Le molte vite della TR4, prima parte: TR4 e TR4A Di Aaron Severson Se cambi la carrozzeria di un’auto, poi dopo qualche anno cambi il telaio, dopo qualche altro anno sostituisci il motore e infine rinnovi ancora la carrozzeria, puoi dire che è rimasta sempre la stessa macchina? Questa è la domanda che si pone per la Triumph TR4 e le sue immediate eredi. Introdotta nel 1961 per rimpiazzare la TR3, la sportiva di successo della Standard-Triumph, la TR4, disegnata da Michelotti, era meno nuova di quanto il suo aspetto suggerisse; fu solo dopo altri otto anni e tre cambi di nome che divenne a tutti gli effetti una novità. In questa prima puntata, iniziamo ad esaminare la curiosa evoluzione della gamma TR, cominciando con le Triumph TR4 e TR4A degli anni 1961-1967. (Foto dell'autore) Le molte vite della TR4, prima parte: TR4 e TR4A 1 TRIUMPH IN ITALY www.TriumphInItaly.it LE TRIUMPH TR2 E TR3 La nascita della prima sportiva del dopoguerra della Triumph Motor Co. è una saga complicata che merita di essere esplorata più approfonditamente; limitiamoci qui a dire che, dopo parecchie false partenze, la Triumph TR2 fece il suo debutto al Salone di Ginevra nel Marzo 1953 e fu commercializzata più tardi nello stesso anno. Progettata con un budget molto risicato per i macchinari, la TR2 era una piccola auto goffa con telaio e freni non adeguatamente sviluppati, ma vantava un motore di 1.991 cc a 4 cilindri con albero a camme in testa (OHV) con una buona coppia, una versione con alesaggio ridotto del motore a canne umide di 2.088 cc adottato nella berlina Standard Vanguard e in alcuni trattori Ferguson (che la Ferguson, società madre della Triumph, produceva dal 1946).

  • 1976 Jensen GT Classic Rally Car PRICE £30,000
    1976 Jensen GT Classic Rally Car PRICE £30,000 ABOUT THIS CAR IDEAL FOR USE ON: Three Castles Trial, Rally of the Tests, Le Jog, Scottish Malts, Classic Marathon, Carrera Atlantica, New Zealand Classic Rally. Preparation Services is pleased to offer this very rare and truly very special 1976 Jensen GT classic rally car. With only 54 believed to be left in the UK, it is doubtful that you will find a better example or one more worth demanding a higher price and for good reason. The car has been with the current owners since 2005 and enjoyed numerous class / category wins and an outright win on the Three Castles Rally 2016. The Jensen GT is an estate or sports-back derivative of the more plentiful Jensen Healey roadster manufactured by the often troubled Jensen Motors in conjunction with Donald Healey and Kjell Qvale. Norwegian / American Qvale imported British cars into the U.S. and when BMC halted production of the big Healey 3000 a replacement was required. Jensen had made the big Healey bodies so it sounds like a match made in heaven. In common with many a great sports cars, parts were sourced from a myriad of suppliers; Colin Chapman’s Lotus provided the fantastic 16 valve alloy 907 engine reputedly the first mass produced modern 16v twin cam, the gear box was initially a somewhat less glamorous Rootes item later replaced with a superior 5-speed Getrag unit while the axle can also be found in the back of a Firenza. The Jensen Healey went on to be Jensen’s best seller and great things were expected of the GT when it was launched in 1975.
