The 1970 Jensen Interceptor is already an exceptionally rare exotic, but this one is a true one-of-a-kind. It's a complete restomod, right down to the chassis, and it even was given fuel-injected Hemi power (that's why it's nicknamed the "Hemiceptor"). It all makes for a true custom build that mixes classic luxury, envy-worthy rarity, and modern performance.
This sports car was a true status symbol. Touring of Italy crafted a design with a long hood that features graceful curves in the sheetmetal. It's a timelessly seductive profile that was handcrafted in the old British style and given a burly American heart. That's why the Interceptors were the true icon of its day. But like many hand-built European exotics of its time, the Interceptors were far from perfect. And this is an expensive custom restomod that fixes all of that. In fact, we have a huge spreadsheet documenting over 0k invested in this custom creation. You can really understand its true quality once you take a closer look. The dark gray paint has the deep luster and metallic shine of a professional modern application. The blackout grille and trim harmonize with the dark paint color and give this a modern attitude. The same goes for the 17-inch Enkei wheels.
The Interceptors were known for their expensive and luxurious interiors, and so this one upholds that tradition nicely while upgrading for modern times. That means high-back bucket seats finished in a supple gray leather and a center console in-between. You have the best comfort features like cold-blowing air conditioning, power windows, power locks, a remote fob for door lock and rear hatch, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and Bluetooth. And for those who understand the Interceptor's past, you'll be glad to know that part of this full build focused on rewiring the electrics and eliminating the Lucas components. This is a true driver's environment. So you have a sports steering wheel on a tilt column, and the top of the dash is dominated by Jaeger gauges angled towards you. And the classic-style Jaeger large speedo and tach now have a digital odometer to give you the proper restomod vibe.
The original Interceptors got their grand touring power from the best Mopar had to offer in the 1970s, and so this one takes that tradition into modern times. You have a fuel-injected 6.1-liter Hemi V8. The engine has been completely rebuilt by the custom specialists at Bradford Balance and Machine. The engine block was Sunnen honed .005 over. It was then enhanced and fortified with Wiseco forged 11:1 pistons, blueprinted heads (with matching valves, guides and valve seals,) a polished the crankshaft, and upgraded main bearings, rod bolts, and head bolts. There's also a FAST Big Mouth throttle body, Griffin aluminum radiator w/electric fan, Milodon oil pan, and headers feeding the custom dual exhaust system. The transmission is a remanufactured NAG1 five-speed automatic fortified by Southern Hot Rods. It's built to handle up to 800 hp. This modern motor and transmission setup can be dialed in just the way you want thanks to a laptop and software that come with the sale. When you see the undercarriage, this will look like no 1970s car you've seen. The suspension is a fresh upgrade all around with an Art Morrison independent front end, adjustable shocks, custom reinforced chassis, and a new stainless steel gas tank. Plus, the solid rear axle was changed to a custom independent rear end. You also have power steering, modern Goodyear Eagle tires, and Wilwood four-wheel power disc brakes. The result is a thoroughly modern machine that updates the Interceptor's reputation as a powerful, capable, and comfortable exotic.
Complete with plenty of build receipts and resoration photos, this is your opportunity at something truly special. So if you want a custom built to impress on the streets and at the shows, call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT
. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
SHIPPING
: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold AS IS and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
DISCLAIMER
: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
Fees and Taxes
Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
