History KELLISON J4 - the HOTRODDER"S SPORTS CAR - LETS SEE some of the BEST!!

There is one being built at "Frame Up Wheel Works" in Wadsworth IL. based on Stanfords illustraton. They are doing a great job on it!

 

go to forgotten fiberglass.com theres some pics there

 

theres one featured on Bangshift.com...wish I knew how to link it here..

 

Heres some photos from a 1959 Kelison sales package and catalog,,also has all the directions for frame , blueprints , FP catalog, mounts and brackets. Covers J-1 through 5

 

I just saw the car that Bob McNulty was standing next to. It's not looking so good

 

A while back, a guy contacted me and said he had found the car. I think he has it now and is trying (or maybe already has) sold it.

 

Here's Zorro's Charger at the Atlanta $10,000 Drags last year,

 

^^^thats the one. Theres more info on the Bangshift website.

 

That Stanford rendering is what made me start wanting one!

does anybody know the whereabouts of the molds for these or if anyone still makes them?

 

Here's one I owned in the 80's. Saw it two months ago, at a NorCal car show.

 

I will try and find pictures of the one I had years ago......

 

Hey...

My dad .. Les Beattie and his partner Roger Hardcastle built and owned the first Stinger dragster. There were pics and an article on the car in the April 1964 edition of Hot Rod magazine. They've both passed away and I'm looking for any pics or videos of the car. Stories are good too...

Thanks...I can answer some questions. But I was just a kid.

Those were great days though and I still remember Jet Car Bob Smith... or uncle Bob... spending a lot of nights on our couch. He was definitely one of the nicest and funniest guys I knew.

 

Anyone know where Bob's Astra finally ended up?

 

A few made it to Europe...
