01 / THE STORY
History & context
In 1950, Keller commissioned two cars on Plymouth chassis, one from Ghia and another from Pininfarina as a trial run for the prototyping process. While Keller was evidently pleased with Pininfarina’s work, it was determined that the workmanship from Ghia was better overall, and all the work from then was awarded to Ghia.
