A classic automobile event in my city (Hamburg, Germany) leaves me recalling this obscure British manufacturer of the mid-to-late 1960s. Gordon-Keeble. Introduced as a concept car in 1960, its' coachwork penned by a then very young Giugiaro and built by Bertone. Buicks' (or is that "Rover") 3.5L V8 under its' hood. All bolted onto a chassis designed in England. Somewhat later, the production versions were fitted with GMs' 4.6L as well as 5.4L V8, its' body made from fiberglass-reinforced plastic. An unfortunately shortlived endeavor lasting a mere 4 years. An estimated 100 examples were built between 1963 and 1967.
Pretty, isn't it ?:

It also bears quite a resemblance to several Bertone Maserati and Ferrari GT cars of the era.
