    If you read the text of the description, the seller actually says that its difficult to tell the difference between this replica and the real thing!
    It didn't look all that close to me...

    I saw a Kelmark GT many years ago, with a Chevy 350. When I first saw it I thought it was a 206 or 246 once I saw it up close I knew it was a kit car. The car is out of proportion for a 246. No matter how many times I looked at that Kelmark it just didn't look right.
    Great car for a Ricer.

    Looks like he has driven through the front window of a Ferrari spares shop.

    I guess that in our position on here we can easily look down upon this "car" and decry it ........ but imagine if you couldnt afford the real thing and you desperately wanted one sooooooooooo bad that you had to buy this kit.... put yourselves in that persons shoes. would you have one?

    A big no on that. There is nothing Dino about it, except the badges. I would rather drive an AMC Gremlin or Pacer.

    I like the idea of swapping the trunk and the engine compartment. It solves the problem of clothes smelling of exhaust after a long drive. I'm surprised that Enzo or Pininfarina didn't think of this!

    I love the Ferrari shield and "quattrovalvole" lettering on the Ford rocker covers. Class all the way!

    Danny Z has cured this and alerted me to the factory solution as his doesn't do this.

    The factory has a foam strip along the rear trunk lid edge that spans the width of the car and seals the trunk. Many cars have had the foam dry, crack and then break away. Danny looked at mine and pointed out where there were remnants of the foam on the trunk lid, rear edge but it departed long ago. Exhaust fumes and heat can't help its lifespan much.
