Title: Solved: Kenley TT
Post by: Djetset on July 12, 2015, 01:41:38 PM
Does anyone have any images or know anything about a British kit car called the Kenley TT please?  From the limited information I have, the Kenley was offered in the late 1980s (possibly from c.1986 to 1990) and was a coupe based on a Triumph Herald.  If any fellow AP fans can add any extra information, I will be very grateful.  Thanks.

There was a Stanbury TT, you could buy a set of plans quite reasonably around that era, though it was a hideous 'ali over ply' 30s styled tourer, could that be what you're after? O maybe stanbury folded and someone carried on selling the plans?

One for sale here:

Kenley Engineering was active in 1986.
Their TT had a Triumph Herald engine.
You can read few lines about in 'The Beaulieu Encycopedia', 'A-Z of Kit Cars' and in 'British Specialist Cars'. No pics there.

Looks suspiciously like a stanbury, two were never the same!

A belated thank you to JP and Iani for the info and image of the Kenley TT, which now all comes flooding back to me as I knew I'd seen it before, but couldn't remember what it looked like  :D.
