Justin,
I saw the car in the flesh.. er metal at the Chicago auto show.
While I admit from the pix it does have a superficial semblence
to the Kastner 250, when you see the actual car you definietly
see they borowed more from the D-Type and XKE Jaguars...
BTW, the car I saw was BRG metallic with biscuit interior and
nifty engine turned dash. Oh yeah it looked like it had been
driven hard at some point, Evidenced by a bit of scoring on the
brake rotors and an eentsy little dent on the nose.
Great looking car!!! `Pobably couldn't afford it.
