The unofficial Kirkham office pool thread (guess the car)
 
Okay, I don't own a Kirkham...but I do know a few people that do! :LOL:

So the Kirkhams are going to have some awesome unveiling at their next open house on February 13th (why during the middle of Winter, may I ask?!? :CRY:).

Anyway, David Kirkham has already nixed the previous guesses of the Shelby GR-1 concept, a GT40 and a Daytona.

So let's see if anyone can get reasonably close to what's in store? I'm confident that the winner will get some consolation prize from the Provo Whittle Works factory, though just bragging rights is good enough for most of us.

I will guess (realistically) some sort of aluminum bodied roadster or highboy, circa '32, with the underpinnings/suspension of a cheetah. Or (unrealistically) if Enzo's heirs have decided to relax on the litigious track, a '57 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa. :cool:

A GoGo mobile..........and yes it will be the Dart model.

Soul.

Ronbo 01-19-2010 05:51 PM

Batmobile...;) (the 60's one by Burris, not the new one)

Or maybe a Nash Cosmopolitan with a FE. (might be a little front heavy):LOL:

OK, I got nuttin'

Early 60s Corvette Grand Sport.

But the '57 Testa Rossa or a Ferrari GTO would be killer.

I think Dean is on to something regarding a 32 era hot rod. It's one of the few cars where there is little to no chance that you'll get sued for violating a name or trademark.

It also continues to be a hot market and would be my choice for another toy.

slider701 01-19-2010 06:28 PM

Their own billet aluminum FE block or a salt flat car

PANAVIA 01-19-2010 06:32 PM

I am saying a 32 Hot Rod as well .-- there is an open place at the top of the market for the BEST 32 ford. --

As I see it, - that is a Logical Progression of the Kirkham marque.

The other option is the BEST damnn daytona coupe that obeys the original form factor. :)

3rd option; a 250GTO Ferrari, co-marketed through Ferrari-Classiche in Italy.

How about the Rush? Kirkham already announced it, but maybe they're planning to go into production. An Arial Atom beater with large array of potential power plants.

Scarab with Polish aluminum body and billet stuff

Woodz428 01-19-2010 08:09 PM

I'd lean toward a Deuce as well. Although it was talked about several years ago nothing came of it. Not so sure that's water worth wading into...but who know's.

Barnsnake 01-19-2010 08:40 PM

I think it will be an open-air track-day beast like the Atom.

bmwmech1 01-19-2010 08:58 PM

Maybe the Sebring bodied, small block version Tom built for himself...

rodneym 01-19-2010 09:09 PM

I'm with barnsnake on this one.

Doug I 01-19-2010 09:25 PM

why does it have to have wheels ;)

dlang14 01-19-2010 11:21 PM

Two guesses.

Porsche 550 Spyder (lots of replicas today, any in Alum?)

Mercedes 300SL Gullwing

Cant wait to see whatever it is.
