    For your amusement: Ebay #200083366509. Intersting to see Kelmark take a beautiful shape and ruin it with subtle changes. The overall shape is very similar yet a little added here and a little deleted there and it goes from beautiful to ...well, a Kelmark GT.

    Oh my God!
    Hard to figure how to make it worse. The VW engine makes it complete. Wonder how much they will have to pay to get rid of it.

    its funny how a very (I mean VERY) long time I considered building/buying one of those, I wanted a Dino so badly in the early 80's and could not afford one that I went so far as to order the brochure and paid money for the builders manual. It looked good in theory and the factory pictures.

    Then I saw one the day after I drove a friends 246 from Long Beach to Santa Barbara and the 246 was fresh in my mind...the Kelmark papers went into the fireplace very quickly that day.

    I loved those Kelmarks as a kid in grade school. I was crazy about the way they looked. I used to make my Dad look at all the magazines with me and talk about the car. I didnt know what a Dino was back then but I figured it out later after I bought my first 246 GTS. It was indeed a poor mans ferrari ( a poor kid anyway).
