Very good so far.
It was Jensen-bodied but not actually a Jensen..
Locked for you to get the marque.

Indeed.  There were 2 built originally, one of them for Clark Gable, who never actually took delivery but did agree to pose in one for photographs.
The puzzle car is the other one, with J.B. Stevenson, Company Secretary of Jensen at the wheel.
These two cars led to a small production run of similar cars.
