40 Jahre Sportwagen Mit Lotus-Herz 06. Jan. 2013 Ausgabe 101/01 JENSEN HEALEY 40 Jahre Sportwagen mit Lotus-Herz KURZNACHRICHTEN TIPPS & TRICKS MODELL DES MONATS Sunday Gazette 101/2012 JENSENHEALEY 40 Jahre Sportwagen mit Lotus-Herz AUTOR: Kay MacKenneth Vereinigungen berühmter Namen gab es in der Automobilgeschichte immer wie- der. Rolls und Royce, Mercedes und Benz sind gängige Beispiele dafür. Weniger bekannt ist das Produkt des Zusammenschlusses von Jensen und Healey. Das blaue Blut des Britischen Sportwagens gesellte sich zum damals neusten Stan- dard automobiler Ingenieurskunst. In unseren Breitengraden ist der Jensen-Healey ein seltener Oldtimer, denn konzipiert war der Sportwagen für den US-Markt.

Nach einigen Startschwierig- keiten, die den Jensen Healey Mark I. mit dem Ruf der Unzuver- lässigkeit belegten, startete man 1973 nochmals durch mit der überarbeiteten Mark 2 Motorversion. 4 Sunday Gazette 101/2012 5 Sunday Gazette 98/2012101/2012 6 Sunday Gazette 101/2012 Präsentiert wurde der Jensen-Healey der Öffentlichkeit 1972. Vo- rangegangen war die Bemühung des US-Importeurs Kjell Qvale nach einem neuen ‚Volumenmodell‘ anstelle des auslaufenden Austin Healeys-Modells, dessen Karosserien bisher als Auftrags- arbeit im Jensen Motors Werk West Bromwich gebaut wurden. Qvale sah seine Chance: Warum nicht selbst bauen, selbst ver- markten und die Fahrzeuge selbst verkaufen? 7 Sunday Gazette 101/2012 In Deutschland ist der zweisitzige Sportwagen mit seinem einfa- chen Stoffverdeck und der reduzierten Innenausstattung eine Seltenheit. Nur 29 der insgesamt 11.014 hergestellten Jensen Healeys wurden nach Deutschland, weitere 55 Exemplare in die Schweiz verkauft. „Mit diesem Sportwagen erwerben Sie mit je- dem Inch einen echten Jensen“ – versprach der Verkaufsprospekt „mit Ausnahme des Preisschildes.“ 8 Sunday Gazette 101/2012 9 Sunday Gazette 101/2012 Marktwertanalyse JENSEN-HEALEY England (GB) Baujahr 1972 - 1974 Modell Jensen-Healey MK2 Hubraum 1973 ccm Leistung 144 PS Karosserie Cabriolet KBA TSN 000 Auktionen Modell Baujahr Zustand Auktion Ort Preis Jensen-Healey 1973 3-4 13.09.2003 Toffen (CH) 5.530 € Jensen-Healey 1973 2-3 21.10.2008 Sanddown 11.800 € Park (GB) Jensen-Healey 1974 2-3 11.10.2010 Sainte-Gene- 8.000 € vieve (F) Marktwerte Jahr Zustand 2 Zustand 3 Zustand 4 2008 13.600 Euro 7.800 Euro 3.600 Euro 2009 13.600 Euro 7.900 Euro 3.700 Euro 2010 13.800 Euro 7.900 Euro 3.700 Euro 2011 14.300 Euro 8.200 Euro 3.800 Euro Alle Notierungen im Bereich Marktwerte und Auktionen wurden nach bestem Wissen- Alledurch Notierungen die Fachredaktion im Bereich Marktwertanalysen Marktwerte und ermittelt.

Nicht nur in Deutschland wurden um 1900 vielfältige Autos gebaut. Auch im be- nachbarten Österreich arbeitete eine Reihe engagierter Ingenieure daran Auto- mobile zu entwickeln. Bei der kommenden Retro Classics (7. bis 10 März 2013) in Stuttgart wird sich eine Sonderschau diesen teils in Vergessenheit geratenen Marken aus Österreich widmen und bisher nicht gezeigte Fahrzeuge aus Privat- besitz präsentieren. Nicht ganz 30 verschiedene Automobilmarken hat es einst in Österreich gegeben. Geblieben sind nur wenige. Die Mehrzahl verschwand im Lauf der Jahre fast gänzlich aus dem Fokus vieler Oldtimerfreunde. Neben bekannte- ren Namen wie Gräf & Stift, Steyr Puch, Austro Daimler, Puch und Denzel finden sich weitere Raritäten mit Namen wie Wyner, Celeritas oder Friedmann-Knoller in der Liste der österreichischen Marken. Die Sonderschau „Österreichs vergessene Automobil-Marken“, die während der Retro Classics 2013 zu sehen sein wird, bringt Fahrzeuge nach Stuttgart, die über eine besondere Epoche des österreichischen Automobilbaus Zeugnis ablegen. Zum einen sind es die vielfältigen Ansätze in den Anfangszeiten des Automobil- baus, zum anderen die späteren Entwicklungen in Richtung Volksauto oder ins luxuriöse Segment wie beispielsweise bei Steyr.

  • The Jensen Interceptor: Chrysler-Powered British Luxury
    The Jensen Interceptor: Chrysler- Powered British Luxury Allan and Richard Jensen's auto business was started before World War II, which interrupted production until 1950, when their first Interceptor was made. At the time, they made Austin bodies under contract, and the first Interceptor resembled an Austin A40 (the Jensens built bodies for a string of cars that included the Volvo P1800, Sunbeam Tiger, and Austin-Healey.) The first Interceptor used a 4 liter Austin in-line six, and was produced in small numbers for over a decade. Jensen also used Nash Twin-Ignition Eight engines for a time, and the 1962 C-V8 used a Chrysler 361 B-block engine. A number of these early Jensens made their way to the US before and after World War II. The next version kept the basic C-V8 chassis, but changed styling. Initially, an in-house convertible design was planned, but chief engineer Kevin Beattie argued for an Italian flavor. Proposals were taken from different design houses, with Carozzeria Touring winning out with a fastback coupe incorporating a rounded tail, but that house was unable to finalize the design. Vignale, instead, provided prototype and initial production bodies, rendered in steel, on CV-8 chassis sent to them by Jensen. Turnaround was quick - about four months - so the new Interceptors could be shown in London in October 1966. Jensen later used the jigs and tools, which were sent by Vignale to the West Bromwich factory. The body had two doors, a low beltline, and fishbowl rear glass in a handsome 2+2 design.

  • Kjell Qvale Dies at 94; Married U.S. to Sports Cars - the New York Times
    9/21/2020 Kjell Qvale Dies at 94; Married U.S. to Sports Cars - The New York Times https://nyti.ms/183z3Rp Kjell Qvale Dies at 94; Married U.S. to Sports Cars By Douglas Martin Nov. 12, 2013 Kjell Qvale, who fell in love with a forest-green, wire-wheel MG sports car in the 1940s and went on to become one of the earliest American importers of European cars, ultimately selling a million automobiles as a distributor and dealer, died on Nov. 1 in San Francisco. He was 94. His family announced the death. As a recently discharged Navy veteran, the Norwegian-born Kjell Qvale (pronounced shell KAH-vah-leh) entered the car business in 1946, using $8,500 in savings to invest in a Jeep dealership in Alameda, Calif. He had no particular passion for cars at the time; to him, this was strictly a business proposition. It was also strictly business when he made a trip to New Orleans to meet with an importer to discuss expanding his line by adding James motorcycles, a not-terribly-fast British make known for its Jeep-like practicality. There, Mr. Qvale found himself standing on a street corner when “this goofy-looking car pulls up to the curb in front of me,” he said in an interview in 2008. He asked the driver where it was made. “England,” the driver said. The car was the MG, and the driver turned out to be the importer of motorcycles he had come to see. He gave Mr. Qvale a ride. It also turned out that the importer was looking for someone to market MGs in Northern California.

  • The Detomaso Mangusta an Italian Exotic That Happened by Accident
    The DeTomaso Mangusta An Italian exotic that happened by accident.. By Rick Feibusch In the good old days, years before the implementation of emissions and safety laws, exotic high-performance automakers woul d just build a car, display it at a few key international auto shows and start taking orders. There wasn't even a legal requirement that the manufacturer road test a prototype before the first production models were delivered to the public! Italian automakers were particularly prone to using the public to test their cars - after delivery. The DeTomaso Mangusta was a particularly interesting example. The Mangusta was born out of the ambition of Argentinian race driver Alejandro De Tomaso who, like many othe r racers, yearned to build his own cars. DeTomaso was born to a wealthy family in a small town near Buenos Aires. He left Argentina in 1955, just one step ahead of Juan Peron's goon squads, having offended the great dictator with political writings publi shed in a local newspaper. Peron, like his idol Adolph Hitler, loved sports cars and heavily supported successful drivers like Juan Manuel Fangio because he believed that if drivers from his country won races, it showed a national superiority. Since DeTomaso wouldn't play ball, he was excluded from the gravy train. DeTomaso left for Italy, the land of his grandparents with only $126 in his racing jumpsuit He met Isabelle Haskell, a rich American woman who owned and raced a Siata and a Maserati. In those d ays, women racers were a rare and unproven commodity, and Ms.

  • Alan and Richard Jensen Produced Their First Car in 1928 When They
    Alan and Richard Jensen produced their first car in 1928 when they converted a five year old Austin 7 Chummy Saloon into a very stylish two seater with cycle guards, louvred bonnet and boat-tail. This was soon sold and replaced with another Austin 7. Then came a car produced on a Standard chassis followed by a series of specials based on the Wolseley Hornet, a popular sporting small car of the time. The early 1930s saw the brothers becoming joint managing directors of commercial coachbuilders W J Smith & Sons and within three years the name of the company was changed to Jensen Motors Limited. Soon bodywork conversions followed on readily available chassis from Morris, Singer, Standard and Wolseley. Jensen’s work did not go unnoticed as they received a commission from actor Clark Gable to produced a car on a US Ford V8 chassis. This stylish car led to an arrangement with Edsel Ford for the production of a range of sports cars using a Jensen designed chassis and powered by Ford V8 engines equipped with three speed Ford transmissions. Next came a series of sporting cars powered by the twin-ignition straight eight Nash engine or the Lincoln V12 unit. On the commercial side of the business Jensen’s were the leaders in the field of the design and construction of high-strength light alloys in commercial vehicles and produced a range of alloy bodied trucks and busses powered by either four-cylinder Ford engines, Ford V8s, or Perkins diesels. World War Two saw sports car production put aside and attentions were turned to more appropriate activities such as producing revolving tank gun turrets, explosives and converting the Sherman Tank for amphibious use in the D-Day invasion of Europe.

In particular the USA, the World's largest sports-car market, where we can now seriously evaluate the full potential for the MG brand." Bruce Qvale, president of Qvale Automotive group said: "MG Rover showed an interest in our Mangusta project in Modena, and we have since agreed a very good deal for both sides. The power of the MG brand now takes the project forward on a global basis." Qvale Mangusta The Qvale Mangusta is the most recent chapter in a long career for the Qvale family. The business, which was founded by Kjell Qvale in 1947, has grown over the years to encompass both car sales (including, incidentally, the US's first west-coast MG dealership) and manufacture. The Mangusta styled by Marcello Gandini (designer of the Lamborghini Countach and Diablo), began as a joint project between the Qvale family and DeTomaso Modena S.p.A in March 1998 to build a new sports car using the Ford Mustang's 4.6-litre V8 engine, echoing the DeTomaso Mangusta of the 1960's. Both the Qvale family and Alessandro DeTomaso, father of the DeTomaso marque, had second thoughts about this arrangement, though, and so a divorce MG X80 now an incredible 965bhp MG SV was arranged in March 2000.
