And I was pretty damm close...

"Kellison / Astra / Allied kit car, mid 1960s. Sorry I can't be more specific. The basic design or variations were marketed under all three names. Bodies were available in several different wheelbases to fit a variety of chassis, including a bespoke one from the manufacturer. Other chassis options were Chevy, MG, TR (3 I think)...and I believe there were some assembled on Bug pans."

The owner of a shop I worked for eons ago had one, in primer, partially assembled on a TR-4 chassis.
