This quirky little 500KK was purchased by racer Jack Ensley from Indianapolis who installed a Rochester fuel-injected 283 cubic-inch Corvette engine and mated it to a four-speed gearbox. In this configuration, Ensley planned to race it at the 1958 Road America 500, but it was not finished in time.

The car was later sold to former B-17 pilot Joseph Concannon who later sold it to Duke Knowlton. While in Knowlton's care, the car was raced in the Midwest during the late 1950s and early 1960s.

Kurtis is a maker of some stunning creations, and this eye catching one-off would sit extremely well among the classic collectors pieces in the lineup of GranTurismo...
