1974 Jensen Interceptor III: British Bulldozer in Red Velvet

1974 Jensen Interceptor III: British Bulldozer in Red Velvet

The 1974 Jensen Interceptor III: A British Bulldozer Disguised as a Gentleman

Ah, 1974. A time of leisure suits, questionable mustaches, and absolute powerhouses cruising down the boulevard. And what better embodiment of that era than the 1974 Jensen Interceptor III? This isn't your average Joe's sports car. This is a grand tourer, a machine built to devour miles in style and comfort, leaving lesser vehicles choking on its dust (or, more likely, exhaust fumes).

The particular specimen we have here, gracing the sunny shores of San Diego, is a gleaming red coupe with a mere 74,000 miles on the clock. Now, some might scoff at a car pushing 50 years old. But for the discerning enthusiast, this is a mere preface to a story waiting to be unraveled.
