Engineering:Jenard Jabeka
From HandWiki
The Jenard Jabeka was a British sportscar manufactured in 1956, by G. A. Elsmore of Yeovil, Somerset in the United Kingdom.
The two-seater sportscar had a tubular chassis with an Austin A40 or Coventry Climax 1,100 cc (67 cu in) engine. It used the Austin running gear and transmission with Woodhead-Monroe dampers.
The car never made it to full production and only one car survives. This car was featured in an episode of the TV series Classic Car Club presented by Tony Mason.[1] It was similar in appearance to the Kieft Cars sportscar of the same period.
