Jensen FF

I have been restoring the Maxerets for the FF’s im working on at the moment. The unit from 029 is plated and cleaned up well whereas the other 2 for cars 133 and 182 will require repainting when I find a match for the colour.

The FF is starting to be rebuilt with freshly powder coated parts. The rear suspension and axle have been refitted and the front diff and cage are now back on the car. A new S/S fuel tank has been fitted and lots of cleaning and painting has kept me busy over the last few weeks.

An early MK1 FF in for a steering and suspension rebuild, all stripped now ready for parts to be sent for powdercoating.

There are quite a few differences from the later MK1 FF’s not just on visible items but once stripped down some components have subtle differences to the later cars.

Now the shell is at the bodyshop all the removed parts are being restored.

The first batch of stripped parts have been now returned from powdercoating, zinc plating and chroming, and can now start to be reassembled.

Its nice to have pristine parts to reassemble, the first batch of steering and suspension components have been rebuilt including front driveshafts and the switch panel has been re-veneered and rebuilt with all switches tested.

The FF coilovers are not easily separated, it is possible using generic spring compressors but can be very risky because the spring is compressed very tight.

We have the correct tool for this job and are happy to split and reassemble your units for you, just contacts us to make arrangements.
