Kellison J5 Astra 1961

Unique Kellison J5 Astra Coupe. A long time ago this 1961 example was exported to the Netherlands and has remained in the same hands ever since. A Kellison is a masterpiece from James Frank Kellison better known as Jim Kellison. Based on the Corvette C1 chassis. This particular car has the larger 6.4 V8 engine from the C2. Recently this Kellison has had a full body-off overhaul and restoration.

The complete restoration, all work and modifications were recorded together with tens of photos. The nice fibreglass body has good panel fittings and fine paintwork. Since the restoration the car has not been driven except for adjustment on a rolling road.

This car has a rich (racing) history as well as period class E GTP-C FIA identity papers. This is an absolutely unique historical full-blood racing car! It is raring to take part on the track and attend many historic racing and classic car events.
