Welcome to my Classic Car page.

My name is Phil Kelley and I am a sixties hot rodder living in Eustis, Florida with my wife of 40+ years and two West Highland Terriers named Max & Kattie.  I grew up in the era of muscle cars and always loved Fords.  In my life I have owned a number of great Fords that I wish I still had.  I owned a new 1969 428 CJ Torino Cobra and a 1971 Torino Brougham that I special ordered with a CJ 429.  I also owned a 1967 Shelby GT500 back in the seventies for about a year and had to sell it because the insurance was twice as much as the car! I have also built a number of Ford street machines like a 1961 Starliner with a 427 medium riser, a 1966 Fairlane with a 427 Stroker and a 1963 406 6V 4 speed Galaxie.

I restore classic Ford cars as a hobby.  One of the cars on this website is a 1965 Mustang Shelby clone. I restored this car in 2005 and drove it to shows all over Central Florida. I sold it in 2008 to a guy in Germany who always wanted one.  I suppose it's cruising the Autobahn right now.

The other car you see here is a 1957 Ford Custom. My father had one of these when I was in High School and I took my wife to the school prom in that car. I loved the car and wanted my parents to give it to me, but the family had to sell it because they couldn't afford to keep it running. I always wanted another one, so here it is.  These 2 door customs where great hot rods in their day.  Almost every one had a 427 in it at one time and they are very hard to find these days.

I hope you enjoy my cars and will visit often.  If you like Fords, there is always something interesting going on in my garage.
