1800: 1962 Jensen built p1800

[Richard Volvo T5R]

Hi all,
As you may guess from my profile name I’m usually found in the more modern 850 forum, however this week an opportunity came up that I just could not resist.
A 1962 Jensen built p1800 came up for sale very close to where I live. It has not been on the road since 1979 and requires a full restoration from scratch. But as a 2 ownwer car with only 40,000 miles since new I believe this is very much worth saving.
So today I took the trailer and bought the car.......( I will try and upload some photos shortly from my phone)
As a newcomer to the p1800 (I know the basics) I’m hoping over the next few years of restoration I may call upon the knowledge of fellow members and hopefully get this car back to the condition which it deserves.
I am hoping to start a thread on here to showcase the full restoration process in time although this will be after September as I have a gul 850 t5-r I’m currently finishing.
Thank you for reading and I’m looking forward to p1800 ownership.
Thanks
Richard (plus mechanic and dad Graham) 😃
