I'm thinking late 60's Jensen, but so far am unable to verify it...

Still looking, but I saw this and decided to post it - 4-door Porsche 911....

Sorry, not a Jaguar or a Jensen, but it is powered by an American V-8 engine.

Cool pic Krash, hadn't even thought about the Troutman & Barnes
'67 Porsche, a lot less ungainly than the Panamera.

Correct you are, its a Gordon-Keeble GT Did you know that the G-K emblem was a turtle because one of the early test mules was written off when the driver swerved to miss a turtle in the road?

This one you actually had a chance of seeing in the U.S., back in the 60's most likely up in Beverly Hills at the homes of Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin.......

I don't think that is correct. For the car your talking about, I posted at post 853 of this thread.
