RS fabrications

Jensen International Automotive, the creators of the reworked Jensen Interceptors, have hit a new production milestone.

With Customer Vehicles leaving, and the Bodyshop & Spraybooth up to full capacity at the RS Fabrications facility in Towcester, JIA currently have Qty 3 BodyShells, in bare metal, at various stages of completion in Towcester with other interceptor vehicles arriving as the production schedule permits.

“We have a Interceptor R, an FF Jensen [4 Wheel Drive Derivative] and a Convertible R in the workshop at present, along with a customer Jensen Interceptor S in the Spraybooth, having had a new Front Panel and Roof Skin” commented Russell.

“These are all customer ordered Vehicles and we have a planned new model coming soon the Jensen Interceptor RS. This Sport GT Jensen is currently in the JIA Technical Centre Banbury for the additional RS specification upgrades.  The Interceptor RS [Sport/Retro Race Jensen] is anticipated for the end of the year, specification to follow on a future RS Fab web update. Consequently the JIA/RS workshop is at full capacity with Jensen vehicle production & Jensen RS performance development” he continued.

Most donor vehicles require extensive body rework and it is a painstakingly slow process to bring the shell back to required standard. Jensen Body Panels/Parts can be obtained, but the majority of smaller bodyshell components have to be hand fabricated in the RS Fabrications workshop, prior to Bodywork prep and quality vehicle paint & finish.
