Ferrari Fascination

Last night, a member on the forums brought up an old article that I wrote on Kellison sports cars. As a result, I wound up re-reading the piece, studying the accompanying gallery, and finding myself in a complete tail spin dreaming of the perfect Kellison to park in my own garage. Of course, that in-turn leads to the inevitable – staying up late and browsing my archives in a search for previously unreported Kellisons.

Instead, he took a Asta/Kellison kit and built a sports car he could afford. The result is this spiffy little wedge with an owner conceived and Ferrari inspired front-end.
