AK Sportscars – otherwise known as Ken (the daddy), Dan and Jon (the sons), Lynda (the Mrs) and Trigger (David the hired hand). An average family affair – NO – we are passionate about our product – the AK 427.

It all started in the mid 80’s when Ken decided to build a kit car. Never one to do things the easy way he spent 18 months making his own pattern and moulds. Along with a good friend Alan Frew (the ‘A’ in ‘AK’), who was in the fabricating business produced the chassis. Although it started as a hobby, demand steadily grew until a decision had to be made whether to continue his glass fibre laminating business or go full time into kit manufacturing. Obviously the car had WON!!!

Production slowly increased so son Dan joined Ken. Later with the move to our present industrial unit Jon too joined the ‘family business’. Producing around 30 kits a year someone needed to keep the men working and the coffee cups full, so in came Lynda to keep the job (and the coffee) flowing.

When Trigger joined, this completed our team, where each member plays their own role to make our business and the car one of the most respected in the industry.
