Default Re: Jensen S1

Thanks for the warm welcome.

The engine was swapped in 1957. When the car was shipped from England to Canada they didn’t drain the cooling system and as a result of the very low temperatures on a December Atlantic crossing the block cracked. I was told that they swapped in an engine from the 40s but kept all auxiliary’s.

I will have many questions indeed.
