The remarkable story of everything Sydney Herbert
Allard achieved in motor sport and motor car manufacture is framed in an up-to-date commentary co-authored by his own son. This is a tribute unswayed by legend, but based on the facts and achievements of his eponymous company. With contributions from the
Allard Owners' Club and
Allard Register, this book contains painstaking research of
Allard history from 1929 to the present day, including previously unpublished material. Just under 2,000
Allards were built, and approximately 510 are believed to remain on the road or known to be under -restoration. More await discovery - even as this book was being written, one of Sydney's long-lost 1930s '
Allard Specials' has been found after years being forgotten. Other topics covered in this remarkable book include: car-by-car engineering and design details; unseen ideas and projects; the history of the
Allard marque in motor sport and the
Allard story in the USA. Finally, it features the
Allard Owner's Club,
Allard Register, members and their cars.
