Liz Rowland(formerly Liz Burn) has now joined the ACAG team manning our display at the NEC. Could still really do with one more for Sunday.

Hi , please look at my post today in the 'where are they now section"about Roland Green British Drag Racing Magazine, please excuse any errors as i am new to posting on forums. My father gave away the Allard Dragon dragster in a competition in BDRM. if i remember it was black with yellow tubing frame and had a Ford Cortina engine. i remember being in Sydney Allards Ford store in south London uk, maybe clapham???
If this post is of interest please let me know or put me in touch with anyone who would like some history on early UK drag racing.i remember Allan Allard and saw him with my father on many occasions. Thanks for looking.

Hi. Always great to hear from people from the past or with links to the past. You've found the right site. If you want more info about the restoration of Sydney's Allard's Chrysler visit www.allardchrysler.org. We'll be at Autosport International stand 8330 if you want to say hello.

Hi All, That motor looks the mutts nuts, would have been at the NEC but am in Clearwater Beach Fla ( it's cold here as well, apparently Florida is the only mainland US state without snow today)

Well done to all those involved with getting that done especially Brian and Stu, what a great achievement.
And well done Stu for still being able to fit in that Jacket, that quite an achievement in itself.
