Kennedy Special Roadster

Kennedy Special Roadster at the Portland International Auto Show in Portland, Oregon, on January 28, 2006

The Kennedy Special was built in 1960 by Don Collins in Portland, Oregon for Bud Kennedy. The Kennedy Roadster represents the state-of-the-art of street/drag racing from the 1960s. It was featured in both Hot Rod and Car & Driver magazines as typical of the quality of the work done by craftsmen of the era. It was restored in 1996 by Scott and Sandy Perrott. It had recently turned heads in England, when it was among the American cars invited to compete at the prestigious Festival of Speed at Goodwood.
