KYOTE  by JEFFRIES

From what I can figure out, Dean Jeffries made four models of the Kyote
The original Mantaray II Kyote  for the movie HEAD on which this website is based.
This was the first body style he offered for sale in 1968
The Kyote I which can be seen on the Lost Kyotes Page was released in 1969
The Kyote II which is for a full size VW pan was released in 1970
and the rarest of them all
the Kyote Racer

While talking with Dean I asked him about the molds for the cars. It turns out that there are only two molds. The first one started out as the Mantaray II Kyote but after having problems with the front tires hitting the headlight assemblies the mold was redesigned to relocate the headlights thus creating the Kyote 1.  The Racer was also made from this mold.
The second mold was for the Kyote II
Dean still hs the two molds at his shop in Hollywood.
