Kellison Cammer on epay
 

I'm not crazy about the rollbar, but look at what's under the hood

item 310580167786

not affiliated in any way, just thought somebody here might be interested

Always liked the Kellison/Stallion/Westcoast Cobra's. A great frame but the early ones like this had the Mustang II/Pinto front end. Some options today using the same mounting points.

People are bidding on the motor, not the car.

The motor is the big selling point, but a little resto paint, clean and chrome. Change the front suspension to a modern design and you have a sweet ride

So whats wrong with a Mustang II front end? Is this the same as that used in the Factory 5 current model cobra kit? Thanks.

The MustangII/Pinto frontend is the one from the 70's car, not the one use in the Factory Five. The unit itself is really flimsy stamped steel and it is very limited in its movement because it uses a radius rod to brace the front spindle. Today you can get a tubular A-arm set up with good geometry and movement that will mount to the same mounting points as the Mustang II/ Pinto unit. And let the good times roll.

Does anyone know if West Coast Cobra is still around or have they gone under?

They stopped going by West Coast Cobra years ago. They go by West Coast Dreams -wcdreams.com- , just be prepared if you visit the site.

The Kellison Stallion was produced in the late '70's and early ‘80’s under a number of different names by Jim Kellison. He had been producing replica cars (~15 to 20 various models) throughout the 1950's and 1960's. Went into retirement for a few years and came back for one last vehicle which ended up being the Stallion. It had many engineering improvements over the original AC based cars from the '60's;
• A monocoque chassis as opposed to the ladder frame style for vastly improved torsional stiffness and better safety.
• A modified front nose on the body for improved aerodynamics. The original big block Cobra’s hit a brick wall at around 160 MPH or so. The Stallion was tested at a little over 200 MPH at the Salt Flats.
• Wheel base was six inches longer – smoother ride and more leg room.
• Track width was four inches wider – more seating room, improved cornering characteristics. True, the Mustang II front end was used since it was about the best option available at the time off the shelf. Replace the stampings with the tubular units and you’re good to go.
• The fiberglass body averaged about a quarter inch in thickness. Much more stout than many of the replicas made today where you can actually see the body panels flap in the wind cruising down the road.

If it's not an original built by Shelby that's fetching the big bucks, you may as well modify it to make improvements.

Haaaaa that was funny!!!

I had a '79 Stallion with A/C,302, and under-car exhaust with a C4 back in the mid 80's. I liked the Cobra on Steroids and got a West Coast 20 years later.

Hey Zots, this sounds a lot like chassis #102, the famous Wonder Woman car. Could it be?

The famous "Wonder Woman" Car?!!?
Mine was red with a beige leather interior and wire wheels (not knock-offs - had lugs)

Hmm, bidding ended, 0 bids, $200, reserve not met. I'm sure that old motor must be worth something. I should have bid $201. :JEKYLHYDE

Somebody made a acceptable offer, it appears. The bids went to mid 30's then it was no longer available
