K3007 or K3025? Both had Jensen bodies, one off-set & 2 seat tourer.

K3025 was built in April 1934 as a standard K3 (pointed tail body) and was originally owned by Charles Martin. It was sold to Robin Jackson in 1935 who sold it to W.E.C. Wilkinson in 1937 who removed the original body and fitted the Jenson body. In the late 1950's the car was sold, the Jenson body was removed and an original style K3 body was fitted for the new American owner (K. Quale). The car is now on display in the Miles Collier Museum.

The Jenson body was fitted onto a spare K2 chassis in the 1960's and is still on that chassis today.

There is a picture of K3025 on the 'Members Cars' part of the 'Pictures' section of this website.

It is a genuine car not a replica.

The reference to W.E.C Wilkinson is incorrect, and it was infact the late Mr W.E.C Watkinson.

Ollie, thanks for correcting me, I did know it was Watkinson as I have met his daughter on a couple of occasions, I do not know what made say Wilkinson.
