Fitting the newly built rear axle
October 14, 2017
When our 1960 Jensen 541S (the prototype) arrived in our workshops back in 2016 we discovered that the rear half-shaft was 20mm too short and not only that but the nut at one end was only secured by 3 turns.
Something somewhere was wrong. The previous owner has since been in touch, his father owned the vehicle many years and and even back then the rear set up had issues. It has been a huge challenge trying to source the correct half-shaft for the job but we are now very pleased to say the challenge has been completed. The correct half-shaft is now fully restored and the back axle has now been fitted to the car.
We have a car on it’s wheels!!

The stunning carpets are now laid into position. At this stage they are only fitted to size everything up and make sure our measurements are accurate.
The door cards are also now in position, we just need to finish off the hidem banding with chrome finishing caps and fully secure the door cards into position.
And finally, the seats are laid into position to ensure a snug fit.
