In 1946 Sidney Allard launched his K1 roadster, using a stockpile of engines and parts not needed following the war effort. Between 1946 and 1949 he eventually also built the J1, L, and M series.
The Model M Coupe is one of the rarer Allard models built - only a handful was ever produced. It was sold new in the United Kingdom but soon made its way to Canada. It was discovered there in 2004 in very rough condition. A two-year restoration followed.
Most of these cars were equipped with a Ford flathead V-8, which is the case here. This motor produces 95-110 horsepower.
