Kirkham Skunk Works
What do you guys think will be unveiled at this weekend's Kirkham Summit? David and Thomas have been annoyingly quiet over the last few weeks. The anticipation and the lack of clues are killing me.

It will be beautiful whatever it is. My guess is a Daytona Coupe.  |

No, the Daytona is old news...this is NEW news. (Although we will start accepting deposits on Saturday for the Kirkham Coupe).
Saltytri is close.
It is coming together and it has been an enormous undertaking to get it together. Let's just say...what would you do if you free reign to some up with the best thing you could possibly make...
David
ps. Joe let a few pics slip... |

Copper-bodied Edsel? Different and reassuringly expensive

Let's see Pete Brock and Keith Craft are speaking...
Pete used to be involved with some Japanese sports car after working for Shelby right? Perhaps its a gold bodied replica of one of those cars powered by a Keith Craft built Kirkham billet aluminum block FE with an aluminum frame?

Original and recreations GT40 are fiberglass, yes. But my KMPGT40 will be aluminium because thats what the Kirkhams do better than most do. Robert

MK IV's I believe had a honeycomb aluminum structure mono I think. RCR already does a nice aluminum mono chassis GT40 in MK1, MK11 and MKIV. I am not saying an aluminum bodied GT40 from Kirkham would not be great, I am just saying the cost/ units sold might be prohibitive for Kirkham in an environment where there are wonderful examples already being produced, one of which is is a continuation car approved for the SAAC registry(hard to one up that)
