Hello everyone. New Jensen Healey owner. My wife found this 1973 Jensen Healey (VIN 11602 but has an engine from a Mk2) online and thought it would be "fun" to fix up.... I need help finding resources for repairs. I've scoured the forums and found great resources for parts and already have an account set up with Delta Motorsports in Phoenix AZ. What I need help with is finding local shops to outsource work such as repairing my flywheel. According to the forums, my ring gear has slipped out of place and should be spot welded to the flywheel. After calling dozens of local shops, only 1 has offered to do the work but I've had horrible results from them in the past. I will be posting pictures and such on my website http://steve.88white.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=41&Itemid=67 If you see anything in the pictures I should be concerned about, please let me know. (yes, I have already ordered the replacement air filter kit) I live in Simi Valley California and if you're local and wouldn't mind taking a look at my car, I would appreciate it. Thanks

For used parts, contact David Booth in England, I think he will have most of the parts you are looking for - like the sun visor and latch. http://www.jensen-healey.co.uk And you are lucky in choice of wife! Mine doesn't mind, but she's not the enthusiast around here. Time to get back to the garage, my car is in molecules. Set off changing the fresh air fan last night, only took me a few hours to get to it, the whole darn car is built around it... -- Joachim

Well welcome to the world of Jensen Healey's, as for parts British Masters in Vista Cal. has ton's of used parts so if you are any where near them it might be worth a trip with your shopping list, I've bought from them thru E-bay and not had any bad issue's so far, and gotten decent pricing, but they do have a rep. for being a bit pricey. No connection to them in any way shape or form. Good luck with your car and keep us informed. Brett PS: join the club and you can post Wanted add's for items as well, Free.
