Jensen Interceptor III Convertible
Jensen's striking replacement for the slant-eyed C-V8 first saw the light of day in 1966. It broke some of the firm's established traditions in that the design was outsourced - to Carrozzeria Touring - and the bodies were made of steel rather than glass-reinforced plastic. Power was initially supplied by a 6276cc Chrysler V8, driving through either a four-speed manual or three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission to an LSD-equipped Salisbury rear axle. The MKII model of 1969 brought revised frontal styling and ventilated disc brakes. Introduced at the October 1971 Earl's Court Motor Show, the Interceptor III was visually distinguished by cast headlight surrounds, GKN cast alloy wheels and a comprehensively revamped interior and was produced in four Series - G, H, J and S4. By May 1972 the engines on RHD cars had been increased in capacity to a whopping 7212cc. A total of some 6,408 Interceptors were produced between 1966 and 1976, however, just 505 of those were Convertibles.
One of 262 examples manufactured in 1975, chassis number 23111713 was supplied new to the United States of America in left-hand-drive configuration. Fitted with the aforementioned 6276cc Chrysler V8 engine allied to the three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission.

The Jensen C-V8 is a four-seater GT car, predating Jensen Interceptor - produced by Jensen Motors between 1962 and 1966. The convertible is rare.

Jensen Nova, 1967, by Vignale. Alfredo Vignale’s proposal for a replacement for Jensen’s C-V8 was designed by Giovanni Michelotti using chassis JM/EXP/117, a short wheelbase version of the Interceptor platform. It was powered by a Chrysler 383 V8 engine with a Chrysler 4-speed manual gearbox. Originally presented at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1967, the 2-seat Nova was finished in dark green with a beige and black interior and a “wrap-around” rear hatch window. After the show Vignale stripped the car down, changed the rear window and lights, resprayed it off-white cream and re-trimmed the interior in red leather. The now white Nova was presented at the Turin Motor show. However Jensen had already decided to go with Carrozzeria Touring’s proposal for the 4-seat Interceptor and the Nova went no further

J2 DallasCon 2019 Main Panel
J2 jump onstage!
Jared: *showing his Texas shirt* This was a gift from a dear friend from set (Maisie)... Jensen: That wasn’t me.
Jensen describing Jared’s shirt and he’s rubbing his hand all over the graphic and Jared’s chest.
Jared mentioning J2’s matching beards
Jared: Love is Love.
Jensen, unprompted, requested that Jared list the US States, which Jared did perfectly in alphabetic order. Jensen: That’s my favorite.
Jared: In the words of Demi Lovato, sorry not sorry. Jensen:... What?
We all just sang Deep in the Heart of Texas with Jared and Jensen
Jared pointed out that his and Jensen's parents are both here. We also saw them all hanging out together earlier in the vendor's room!
Jared: we went on a world tour and I found out that I'm afraid of elevators, so I'm taking steps to avoid them Jensen: your bad jokes have reached new heights
Jared has been running around a lot. Jensen says, "I'm sorry. He's usually better than this. He gets nervous around his mom and dad." Jared: it's true
Jensen after patting Jared’s chest: but he brought his mountains...
Q: Have y’all ever considered racing the Impalas and who would win? Jensen: There’s only one that has a big v8 in it. When we escape with her quickly after the show ends down to Austin there’s a little racetrack down there. We might go give her a test.
Classic J2 (x, x)
They’re both in such good moods today :)
Fan: thank you for existing. Jared: you can thank those 4 people right there (points to their parents) Fan: why did you open bar/brewery?
Jensen: gives a long intentionally boring answer about profit margins and finding a hole in the market to explain why he and Jared both started businesses related to beer. Jared: It was because beer.
Jared mom, dad, shut your ears. When I was not 21 yet and I had a fake ID-- Jensen: I never had a fake ID. Jared: .... Jensen: I had a real ID from my friend who was 21 and looked like me. Jared: Fair enough. Jensen: I MEAN NO I NEVER DID THAT Jared: HE NEVER DID, ALAN.
Jensen pretended to collapse on the ground and Jared went to grab him and pick him up and put him back in his chair and Jared’s like he’s got some mountains too!!
Jared said best friend and pointed at Jensen
Jared was trying very hard to acknowledge his privilege and say how lucky he is and how great his parents are.
Jared: I was born fortunate in that I am a tall white man and I live in a world made for tall white men. My parents didn't have all the money I have and they sacrificed everything to make sure we had what we needed growing up & that was what I learned from them
Q: What would you say is the most influential thing your parents taught you that you are passing on to your kids? Jared: I’m a very lucky guy, husband, and father. My parents taught me I should do the best I can. They sacrificed a lot for me. They gave every single ounce of their being to me and my siblings and I hope to do that as much as I can for my children. Jensen: I could give a laundry list but one is the gift of laughter. There were always jokes, not good ones, but there was constant laughter in the house and I hope to raise my kids in a house with equal laughter.
Jared recommends acting as not a career, but as a passion
Jared: I don't recommend acting as a career. If it turns into a career, that's great. There are actors that have changed my life that you wouldn't know the name of. Just b/c we have a lot of episodes doesn't mean we're better actors. It needs to be a passion first.
Jared: Just because we’ll have more than 370 episodes of show between Jensen and I, doesn’t mean I’m a better actor. For me, acting is what I needed to do and I’m blessed enough to get paid for it.
Jensen: There are so many different platforms and mediums to tell stories. Like Jared said, do it because you love it, not because you want to get paid for it.
Jensen thinks the biggest challenge of voice work is not having someone else in your scene who you can feed off. He also teased that he's recorded some other voice work we haven't seen yet!
Q: what is one theme you would want someone to take from the show? Jared: Texas Jensen: via Kansas
What do you want fans to take away from the show? Jared: Sam and Dean did the best they could with what they had. Just do the best you can do and be true. You don’t need to be perfect. Work hard, be honest, loyal, sacrifice. Jensen: The good fight. The brothers fight for each other and they fight for what they believe is right.
Making each other laugh :)
Someone passingly mentioned pie and Jared started listing pi off the top of his head. He is in show-off mode for his parents today :P
Jared says Jif. Jensen says Gif. Debate ensues.
J2 know how the show is gonna end
Jared says they already met with producers and writers after their trip to Australia and they know how the series ends Crowd: OOOOOHHHHH
Q: Most difficult thing for the boys to face again? Jared: We went to LA to meet with producers, writers, directors. We know how the show will end... The last scene of spn will be the most...*gets cut off* Jensen: I hope no more leviathans
J2 being adorable
Jensen wants Hookman to return. Jared loves that legend too. Jensen wants to kill Yellow Eyes. Fan: Ruby Jensen fakes holding Jared back.
Jensen: If there was one thing I’d really love to not have to deal with again it’d be the bees. I could live with never having the bug episode again. Ever. If those come back I’m out.
Jared: You can kick me in the shin, punch me in the face, hit me in the crotch, and it’s fine. But if you spit on me, I’ll kill you
Jensen: ...when you killed a hellhound... Jared: I killed a hellhound? Jensen: yeah because you're not a Losechester ;)
Fan asked about if Sam and Dean will do something to show Cas gratitude (during Misha’s panel on Saturday he mentioned this in re: to what could be happy enough to send Cas to the Empty). J2 thought the fan was asking how the boys would show gratitude if Cas died and went to the Empty. Jared: I think we'd keep doing what we've been doing. If you lose someone, you keep on fighting the fight. Talks about how they don’t grieve like how people in real life would or should. Jensen: the best way that they can honor the lives they've lost is to continue fighting and saving lives (For full context: video)
Q: something you've always wished to change in the show? Jared: that my brother wasn't so short. When we straighten his legs, he's as tall as me Jensen: maybe more trips to the barbershop. It's like having a sheepdog in the car.
Fan from Norway suggests setting the show in a city there with a hard name. Jared: God bless you. Jensen: WATCH YOUR MOUTH. Jensen: I thought when she said where she was from, you were going to respond "NOR-WAY!"
Who do you fanboy over? Jared fans himself and says “Jensen Ackles” :)
Jensen talks about how Jared fanboyed over Eddie Vedder
Jared tells more of the story. He asked if Eddie's cig is real. Jared smoked whatever Eddie was smoking & Jensen dragged him off
Jensen: "It was like a vapor cloud of everything cool that had ever been in Jared's body evaporated away & I was standing next to this empty shell of a person."
Jared to Jensen: I pick you
Last question: The girl was reading the question off her phone about the French Mistake and Jared saw she wrote another question about sexy moves and decide to answer that one instead and dance around.
Q: If your character took over your body, who would notice first and what would be the biggest difference? Jared: I don’t think I would talk so much because Jared talks a lot. If anyone saw me eat. Jensen: Voice and anyone who talked to me would notice.
Classic J2 fist bump brings the panel to a close!
