Any Gordon Keeble Owners Out There?
Discussion
Once again I can't remember the chassis number but I think it was the blue one but hopefully David can shed some light... It was another P.Preen car. He also made a dummy chassis so the bodies can be moved around, mainly for going to the paint shop... It is currently under the body of Ch30 while the restoration to the main chassis is being carried out... If any one may need the use of it in the future I'm pretty sure you have my dads number.

I can't remember the Chassis number " ... It was Ch49.
Afraid I cant be certain of the dates...Ch49 had a Mega Re-Build and was 'STAR of the SHOW' - Appearing as a Rolling Chassis in 2008 - where some visitors thought production had re-started. ie a NEW G-K!!
Then, again, in 2009 as the (just) completed re-build - Which Terry drove home from the show!!

Hi all,
I hope you don't all feel like I'm taking over your G-K pages, I just it would be nice for the owner and all to see how Ch#30 is being restored to its original Spec with a slightly enhanced top of diff area and mount.
Below is the following pictures of the offside and then near side strut mount being re-worked and re-built.

Just got my spinners back from the chrome platers, thanks to Hunstman for finding Roy at Kacimac Ltd, Waterlooville. Finally somebody who can turn the stuff around in 2-3 weeks, is very reasonably priced and does a very nice job, shame I didn't know about him before I had the rest of the chrome done.
Before and after below:
Just need to put them back on and it's Ch 76 Exterior = Done

I'm trying to trace the early history of my G-K and to that end I've posted an appeal for information on the Classic Cars and Yesterday's Heroes forum. One of the respondents suggested I try a posting here - any leads at all will be much appreciated.

Plenty of interest in the car, and it looks like it has sold! Will be sad to see it go. It attracted so much interest, and positive comments (as usual!) in the Race Retro car park yesterday.
Not sure if the red calipers were on it originally (although I think not), but my file shows that the previous owner had the calipers refurbed a few years back and they were painted red at that time (can't be sure if they were previously like that though).
