    In the 40's and 50's, many up and coming entrepreneurs were working out of garages, basements, kitchens, and spare bedrooms. This was most likely the case for Kansas City Kits. They project was apparently very short lived, although there were a number of them produced. I have been able to find virtually no information on this company, other than the address, and a very few cars. The cars weren't well detailed, and were offered in O, HO, and S scales. Anyone have any info?
