The hand-formed aluminum body was stripped and repainted in white with blue stripes during the aforementioned refurbishment and features a hood scoop, leather hood straps, polished porthole vents, stone guards, dual fuel fillers, and split bumpers.
Body-color 16” steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and beauty rings. 5.00”/5.50” Michelin Superconfort tires are mounted at all four corners. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel drum brakes.
The cabin features low-back bucket seats trimmed in black leather and fitted with RJS Racing Equipment harnesses. The battery and a secondary fuel tank are mounted in the trunk.
The Bluemels Brooklands banjo-style steering wheel fronts an engine-turned dash panel housing a Cooper Stewart 140-mph speedometer, a Sun tachometer, and Stewart Warner auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 25k miles.
According to the seller, the 400ci Cadillac V8 was modified by Vic Edelbrock Sr. prior to initial installation utilizing JE pistons, an Isky camshaft, an aluminum Detroit Racing Equipment intake manifold, and twin Carter carburetors. An engine overhaul was completed in 2018.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a LaSalle three-speed manual transmission and a Ford banjo rear axle.
The car was featured in the book Red Wheels and White Sidewalls: Confessions of an Allard Racer by Bill Pollack, a copy of which is included in the sale.
