Allard J2X

This car took part in the Sportscar v Saloon Challenge Race at the Aston Martin Owners Club's meeting at Oulton Park in May 2002.
It's Josh Sadler's 1952 Allard J2X Cadillac, which the programme of the event says has a 6,092cc engine - about 372 cu in. I can't find a Cadillac engine corresponding to that size - the early 1950s V8 engine was 331 cu in (5,424cc) while the late 1950s unit was 365 cu in (5,981cc).

On 26 January 2015 I showed a photograph of an Allard J2X Le Mans taken at Oulton Park in 2008 which had all-enveloping bodywork to comply with Le Mans FIA regulations.
