ALL THE BODY PANELS WERE HAND MADE IN ENGLAND AND THE INTERCEPTOR COST AS MUCH AS AN ASTON MARTIN BACK IN THE 1970'S AND WAS DRIVEN ONLY BY THE RICH AND FAMOUS.
THE STORY ON THE CAR IS THAT THE PREVIOUS BUYER DECIDED TO REMOVE THE ORIGINAL CHRYSLER 383 ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND PUT IN A NEW CRATE LS3 ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION IN THE CAR.
THE ENGINE BAY IS CLEAN AND READY TO INSTALL A NEW POWER PLANT.
THE INTERIOR WAS REMOVED AND THE IDEA WAS TO UPGRADE THE 70 INTERCEPTOR TO A 2022 INTERCEPTOR.
UNFORTUANETLY THE OWNER RAN OUT OF MONEY AND SOLD THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND SO I WAS ABLE TO BUY THE CAR.
THE INTERCEPTOR WAS FAMOUSLY BROUGHT INTO THE FUTURE IN THE MOVIE " FAST AND FURIOUS 6 SET IN LONDON, LETTY PLAYED BY MICHELLE RODRIQUEZ DROVE AN UPDATED INTERCEPTOR AGAINST VIN DIESEL !
I WAS GOING TO MAKE THE CAR INTO A RESTO MODEL INTERCEPTOR MYSELF, BUT I JUST BOUGHT ANOTHER RARE CAR THAT NEEDS A TOTAL RESTORATION AND SO THE MONEY FROM THIS CAR WILL HELP PAY FOR THIS NEW PROJECT.
SO, IF YOU EVER WANTED TO BUILD A MODERN VERSION OF THE INTERCEPTOR OR RESTORE THIS INTERCEPTOR BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL GLORY THEN HERE IS YOUR CHANCE !
THE CAR IS IS A SOLD CA CAR, THE BODY IS PRETTY STRAIGHT WITH A FLAT BLACK BASE COAT AND WOULD LOOK GREAT WITH A MATTE GUN METAL VINYL WRAP.
PUT IN A NEW ENGINE AND WIRING HARNESS AND A NEW MODERN INTERIOR AND YOU WOULD HAVE YOUR SELF A VERY COOL LOOKING CAR !!
THERE ARE PLENTY OF MODERN INTERCEPTOR RE-MODELS ON THE INTERNET TO LOOK AT.
THE CAR HAS A 32/30 LOUVERED HOOD TO COOL THAT BIG V8 ENGINE AND CAME WITH A SUN ROOF.
THE GLASS AND CHROME IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.
THE DASH IS COMPLETE WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL SMITH GAUGES.
THE CAR HAS THE LATER MK3 INTERCEPTOR ALLOY WHEELS.
THE UNDERNEATH OF THE CAR IS PRETTY SOLID WITH 53 YEARS OF ROAD WEAR AND SOME RUST, BUT NOTHING TO DRASTIC THAT CANNOT BE FIXED.
THE TRUNK CARPET WAS REMOVED AND THERE IS NO RUST IN THE TRUNK ARE, SEE PHOTOS.
THERE IS SOME RUST AT THE BACK SEAL WHERE THE HUGE GLASS REAR WINDOW SITS ON THE BODY, THIS IS VERY COMMON IN INTERCEPTORS AS THE WATER GETS TRAPPED BETWEEN THE BODY/BACK WINDOW, BUT NOT STRUCTURAL, NOTHING THAT SOME SHEET METAL CANNOT FIX. APART FROM THESE AREAS IT IS A SOLID CAR.I HAVE THE ORIGINAL EXHAUST.
THE CA REGISTRATION IS CURRENT UNTIL 2023 AND THE PINK SLIP IS CLEAN, IN MY NAME AND READY TO BE SIGNED OVER TO THE NEW BUYER.
AGAIN, I COLLECT JENSEN INTERCEPTORS, AS THE INTERCEPTOR IS ONE OF THE GREATEST CARS EVER MADE.
YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO STOP BY AND TAKE A LOOK AT THE CAR.
IT IS LOCATED AT OUR STORAGE YARD IN CANYON COUNTRY/ SANTA CLARITA C, ZIP CODE 91351.
THE CAR IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS AND NO WARRANTY IS SOLD OR SUPPLIED.
PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL WITH ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AT MY ADD !
