Outsourced – 1964 Gordon-Keeble

What if Chevrolet offered a 2+2 Corvette? There was once a British 2+2, with a Corvette engine that might have joined Corvettes in Chevy showrooms. It caught the attention of Zora Arkus Duntov, “father” of the Corvette, and Ed Cole, President of General Motors. Cole was impressed enough that he promised to provide drivetrains for the cars and asked if 1500 of the cars could be produced for purchase by General Motors. If that had happened, the Gordon-Keeble might still be around. But it didn’t, and the Italian-bodied, American-powered, British-built GT was short-lived.

Gordon, then Gordon and Keeble, then only Keeble, then gone.
