A Corgi from the Rockets line. My first actually. I love the color, it's almost like those spectraflame HW.

If memory serves, this awesome car was only modeled by Corgi and Playart. Would be nice to see a modern rendition of it. |

I agree!! The only recent small-scale Jensen model has been the very nice 541 model from Oxford Diecast in 1/76 scale. The 541 was effectively the Interceptor's "grandfather", with the CV-8 coming in between the two. Oxford Diecast Jensen 541 R ![]() |

I know there was also a Jensen-Healy...fellow up the road had a pair for restoration a few months back priced reasonably and they sold rather quickly. Reading up on them I saw they were not as well received by the public as their predecessors. To my knowledge the Jensen-Healy has not been done in small scale. Pretty car though... |

Support your local demo derby.

Awesome Corgi! I'd agree with Wes and would suggest Auto-World do the Jensen in true 1/64.

Auto World would certainly produce a great model of the Jensen. Only problem is that I'd never be able to buy one over here
