Photographed here with F1 driver Sergio “Checo” Perez at Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, this NEW 1965 Kirkham Roadster comes with the original certificate of origin & only has 42 miles on the odometer! The invoice for the build shows an $8,000 upgrade of the motor from a 427 to a 496. Stopping power is provided by Wilwood brakes & the vehicle comes with both a leather covered and a spare wood quick release steering wheel. The driver and passenger racing seats are mounted on specially designed seat tracks for tall drivers and are equipped with 6 point harness belts. There is currently a lengthy waitlist for Kirkham Motorsports builds. Come on in to Motorcar Gallery and skip the line!

The idea for Kirkham Motorsports was born in 1994 & inspired by a jet purchased by the brother in law of David Kirkham. Yes we said Jet. Frustrated by the cost of maintaining his own Cobra, David's mission was to build outstanding reproductions. By total coincidence David was asked to repair a Polish Fighter Jet that had been damaged during delivery to the US. Upon inspection of the Jet David noticed the uncanny resemblance to the construction of his CSX3104. Without hesitation, David tracked down the manufacturer in Poland and faxed them a note that read as follows: “Can you guys build an aluminum bodied car?”. Very shortly thereafter a simple response read “No problem” and the rest is history. Kirkham combines beautifully crafted aluminum bodies with modern day technology producing some of the finest recreations available.
