In 1952 Allard gave its popular sports model a new look. The new K3 looked very modern in contrast to the skimpy J1 and K1 models that preceded it. The K3 had coil-spring front suspension and either 3.6 or 4.4 litre V8 engines, some USA cars even had a Cadillac engine as this was considered more prestigious.
The body of the K3 was all new. It featured integral front wings and was constructed on a light tubular frame with its twin fuel tanks housed inside the rear wings. Production of the K3 lasted until 1954, sadly it was not as popular as Allard had hoped and only 62 were actually built.
