By Dom Miliano

by
Dom Miliano

Unlike today's automotive designs, where aerodynamics dictates the look of a racer, thirty years ago a car's shape was more a reflection of the builder's instincts than anything else. Back then, fast cars had swoopy metal fenders, ignitions with points, Italian carburetors and treaded tires that were closer in…

Just wanted to see if anyone knows the whereabouts of my father's ( Robert Domito) Kurtis he raced in 1953-54 at southern cal events.
