Talk:Jensen FF

Number of gears
Someone has entered to the info box that the car had a four speed automatic. According to my source it had a three speed automatic. I've not changed the entry because I am not sufficiently confident in my source. But does anyone have access to anything on this? With that size of engine, I think a four speed automatic would have been a bit unusual at this time, but I'm not an expert of big old Chrysler engines.

 * This page says 3 speed TorqueFlite http://www.jensenff.co.uk./page3.html for Mk1 is there other marks and does thjose have same box? --&mdash; Typ932T 20:09, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I thought MkI was the only mark, but this was only from memory and I was wrong (so long as my interpretation of Italian wiki is right).  There were a few prototypes with the four wheel drive system from the earlier body shape, but I don't know if any were commercialised.   If it was still on Mk I in 1969 (which is implied tho NOT stated in the extract to which you direct me), then logically it would also have been on Mk I in 1966 (the date of my source).   Italian Wiki thinks Mk I ran 1966 to 1968, Mk II 1969 - 1971.   BUT Italian wiki merges the Inteceptor and the FF into a single article:  which makes perfectly good sense.  It's just the English and German wiki give them separate pages.   So the information is powerfully persuasive that the automatic box was THREE speed but I guess not yet quite conclusive.   Still, I think it's moving that way...
 * Speculation: I think the most likely is that for the Interceptor (as with the precious model) there could have been advertised a choice between a three speed automatic and a four speed manual, but they were mostly sold to Americans who don't like a stick shift in a big car.   So in practice almost all all Interceptors went to US with a three speed Chrysler torqueflit box.   Ditto the few FFs that actually found customers   But that's speculation

 * Further reflection:  If it was a Torqueflite system to go with the Chrysler engine - and I think it was - it must have been a 3 speed.   Torqueflite is a three speed system. Charles01 (talk) 07:10, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I think it must 3 speed Torqueflite A-727, torqueflite page says 4 speed was introduced in 1989 --&mdash; Typ932T 08:10, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

The image
Does the image show an FF or an Interceptor? Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:20, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Reading the styling notes, I see that the image is indeed an FF. Perhaps the file name should be changed? I have removed the photo request notice. Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:24, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
