Jensen Monday Club

West Bromwich Classic Car Show 2005

 

The West Bromwich classic car show has become one of the must go to shows of the year. It was at the 2003 show that the Monday Club members met, and as West Bromwich is the home of Jensen cars, the show attracts lots of Jensen vehicles (27 this year) and ex members of the Jensen workforce who share their memories of life at the factory.

The show hosts many varieties of cars, buses, and trucks, as well as fair ground rides, auto jumble stalls, and a mean goat curry from the Caribbean food stand!

The Monday Club members met outside the West Bromwich Albion football ground, and the picture below was taken in front the their great escape banner as they fight off relegation from the Premiership! (Which they did, against unbelievable odds (3 other teams had to loose, and they had to win) to become the only club to be bottom of the Premiership table at Christmas to avaoid relegation).

Here are some of the sights from the show.

Lots of Jensen's!

My mate Roger's Bond Bug. Would you believe this guy is a designer at Jaguar cars!

A very bling Jag!

An even more bling Jag engine!

A very yellow Westfield.

Wonder if he gets problems with cooling?

A potential new owner tries the car for size!

A very tasty Corvette

I think this guy is hard of hearing...

And you thought Jensen fuel consumption was high!
