Market commentary
Restored at some point, this Allard has mellowed with age and use to be a very attractive driver. It lacks the charisma of a J2 or J2X but is typical of the cars that kept Allard going in the early 50s. RM offered it at Meadow Brook in July 2010 where it attracted a high bid of only $90,000. The wait for Amelias more competition oriented venue was worth it. This is real money for this cars specification and very usable condition.
