1958 Jensen 541 Deluxe- Bare shell restoration 2013/2014 including retrim with Maserati-sourced leather, wooden dash etc.- JOC 'Best in Class' cup holder 2015/2016, Rosso Red with Mustard leather- Laycock overdrive, disc brakes, triple SUs, one of just 53 examples builtLike its contemporary Interceptor, Jensen's 541 flowed from the pen of Eric Neale, and first saw the light of day at the 1953 London Motor Show, with production commencing the following year. It had many points of interest. For example it was the first Jensen to feature a predominantly glass reinforced plastic body, the entire front section of which hinged upwards in order to give optimum access to the engine compartment. The material was chosen to overcome the relative post-war shortage of steel, and provide an economical solution to the problem of manufacturing a complex design in small numbers. There was also the benefit of a reduction in weight and, with the contribution of alloy-skinned doors and Perspex rear windows, the newcomer's overall dry weight was 2,690 lb versus the Interceptor's 3,020. Interestingly, not only was the body impressively light, but aerodynamic too - the drag coefficient of 0.39 being notably low for a large car of the period concerned. So to another first - in Deluxe specification, the 541 was also the first British four-seater car to be equipped with Dunlop disc brakes all round.The innovative body was mounted on a rigid steel chassis and the ensemble powered by a triple carburettor version of Austin's proven DS5 engine, complete with Weslake high compression cylinder head. The resulting output of 135bhp was sufficient to propel Motor magazine's test car to 60mph in 10.8 seconds and on to a mean top speed of 115.8mph. The unit drove through a four-speed manual transmission for which there was the option of Laycock de Normanville overdrive. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, while the live rear axle was supported by leaf springs and further located by a Panhard rod. A total of 226 541s are known to have been built between 1954 and 1959, 53 of which were the Deluxe version that featured all the otherwise optional extras as standard. The original 541 was supplanted by the 541R and then 541S, bringing total series production to c.546, of which the Jensen Owners' Club believes less than 150 remain in existence.The appropriately registered 'TSV 541' now offered for sale is a 541 Deluxe that came off the line in November 1958. We should set the scene by pointing out that it won the Jensen Owners' Club's Best in Class Cup in 2015/2016, so is certainly no run-of-the-mill example. It was acquired by the vendor in 2012 having been dry stored for around 20 years. At this point it was stripped to a bare shell and every component, large or small, either replaced or refurbished as required. The exterior finish of vibrant Rosso Red was left unmolested, as it remained in fine order from an earlier repaint. The car was, however, treated to a new Maserati-sourced Mustard Yellow leather interior that's complemented by a bespoke light-coloured wood facia. This delightful Jensen seemingly wants for nothing, as its comprehensive specification includes: overdrive gearbox, twin stainless steel exhausts, chrome wire wheels, auxiliary front lights, period sports wing mirrors, and a period push-button radio fed by a roof-mounted aerial. The vendor currently classes the interior trim and transmission as 'excellent', the bodywork and paintwork as 'very good to excellent', and the straight-six engine as 'very good'. 'TSV 541' has so far travelled just 3,295 miles since the restoration was completed in 2014, and this lovely example of one of the British industry's rarer classic GT cars is now being offered complete with an MOT valid into October 2018, together with certificates covering the full period of the Jensen's current ownership.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

Lot 58
1943 International Harvester M5 Half-Track Personnel Carrier- Used during the Allied liberation of Europe most likely by the Polish forces- Subsequently seconded to the French Army who stationed it in French Guyana, South America for decades- Brought back to France in the 1980s and sold to Belgian collector, and Supreme Court Judge, Mr Louis Amerijckx who stored it in the grounds of his chateau- Acquired from Mr Amerijckx by Ivo Rigter in Summer 1987 and treated to a 2,500-hour, 'chassis up' restoration over the next twenty-seven years!- Correct-type engine was overhauled by the Bugatti works during the 1960s (and again as part of the refurbishment). Genuine parts were used wherever possible and sourced from all over the globe- Vehicle is liveried in the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders and as a tribute to the famous Polish SOE Agent Maria 'Krystyna' Janina Skarbek. Surviving WW2, she became a British Citizen and took the name Christine GranvilleConceived as a high-mobility infantry vehicle capable of resisting small arms fire and shell / mortar splinters whilst carrying a dozen troops at speeds in excess of 40mph, the M3 Half-Track was also considerably easier to drive than a Full-Track machine. Despite the best efforts of the White, Autocar and Diamond T Motor Companies, demand was still outstripping supply by mid-1941. Approached by the US Army's Ordnance Department, the International Harvester Company of Chicago, Illinois designed its own version. Utilising 5/16-in homogenous armoured plate (as opposed to 1/4-in face hardened steel), the resultant M5 was heavier than the M3 but compensated by featuring a strengthened chassis and hull, tougher 'banjo' axles and more powerful International Harvester RED-450B straight-six OHV engine. Credited with developing some 143bhp and 348lbft of torque, the latter was allied to four-speed manual transmission. Visually distinguished by its flat-section front wings and rounded rear corners, the M5 is deemed by many to be the ultimate Half-Track. Over half of the 4,625 IHC Half-Track M5 Personnel Carriers made came to Britain to be distributed under the Lend-Lease programme.Delivered on April 27th 1943, this particular example - serial number M5-2696 - is believed to have been used by Polish forces during the Allied liberation of Europe and thus may even have participated in the capture of the Kriegsmarine naval base at Wilhelmshaven. Known to have been in Germany following the cessation of hostilities, it was thoroughly overhauled by the Mercedes-Benz Works before being reallocated to the French Army. Stationed in French Guyana, South America for decades, the Half-Track returned to France during the 1980s where it was acquired as surplus by the Belgian collector Mr Louis Amerijckx. Then a Supreme Court Judge and chateau owner, Mr Amerijckx took some persuading but eventually sold the M5 Personnel Carrier to Dutch enthusiast Ivo Rigter in 1987. Determined to return the IHC machine to factory specification and condition, Mr Rigter scoured Europe and the United States in search of correct parts. Some twenty-seven years and 2,500 restoration hours later, the Half-Track was finally completed to his satisfaction.Despite their Mercedes-Benz overhaul plaques, the pre-refurbishment engine and gearbox were found to be too heavily water damaged to reuse. Another RED-450B straight-six OHV engine was duly found (and turned out to have been overhauled by Bugatti during the early 1960s), while Mr Stel from Radio Kootwijk provided a replacement gearbox. The rear tracks were sourced from Portugal and any truly obscure components made from scratch by Mr Rigter and his team. A hobby that turned into a business, by the time M5-2696 was completed Mr Rigter had founded the BAIV BV International Trading Company (BAIV standing for British and American Invasion Vehicles). The quality of the work which has gone into rejuvenating the Half-Track has to be seen to be appreciated but an idea can be gleaned by viewing the following YouTube link: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVZjReelx9dNWmoaewpMIZk7-XFGI-kSK Sporting the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders, the M5 Personnel Carrier also has the name 'Krystyna' emblazoned on its doors as a tribute to Christine Granville (nee Maria Krystyna Janina Skarbek) a remarkable Polish lady who served as a Section D and SOE agent during WW2 and who may or may not have inspired the character of Vesper Lynd in Ian Fleming's James Bond novel 'Casino Royale'!Driven less than 1,000 miles since the completion of its painstaking restoration, the use of modern materials means that its rear tracks appear all but unworn. Participating in the Dog Green Camp Omaha Beach 2014 meeting, the IHC machine has also been used by the vendor for taking friends to the pub! Potentially road legal once UK registered, it would make a hell of a statement at the Goodwood Revival! Only coming to market because the vendor wishes to reduce the size of his military vehicle collection, this fabulous Half-Track is offered for sale at somewhat less than its restoration would cost to repeat today. PLEASE NOTE: THE GUNS AND EXTRA EQUIPMENT VISIBLE IN THE PHOTOS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE FOR LEGAL REASONSPLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT
