The Gordon-Keeble GT is also based on the 2600 Sprint.
At first glance it reminded me strongly of the GORDON-KEEBLE GT's of 1964-66. Another car of rare promise that was also killed off due to financial troubles.
he had his eye on the British Gordon-Keeble GT which was designed around a powerful Chevrolet V8 and had a rather elegant body by Bertone. This was the concept he was looking for.
