For Sale: Allard K2-3125 - SOLD!
/Allard K2 3125 was ordered July 8, 1952 by Noel Kirk Motors in Los Angeles, Ca. and was exported on September 13, 1952. The car was purchased by the seller’s father in poor condition at the Fall Carlisle meet in 1979. Shortly after the purchase, the K2 was sent to a local shop for a complete restoration. Unfortunately after 3 years into the restoration, the shop went bankrupt and closed their doors. The Allard was brought home 75% completed. The sellers family continued work on the car for a few years, but soon other matters took priority and the car sat untouched since 1985.
In 2018, the seller inherited the car and set about finishing the restoration; quickly learning why the car sat idle for so many years. Just about every task that needed completing was either missing parts or information as to how the car should be completed. Thankfully the Internet came to the rescue and groups like the Allard Register were able to provide technical assistance as well as connecting him with an Allard owner with a very original K2.
The car now runs and drives very well. The engine is a 1952 Cadillac 331 with two 4 barrel carburetors. It is the engine that was in the car when purchased. The K2 also has a fairly uncommon side mounted spare.
