Yep, the Allard's rare...only other one I've seen is in Sweet Home, Oregon...it's red. Owned by a guy named Allard (no relation, tho) who will talk your leg off if you say anything to him...if memory serves, his is powered by a sb chevrolet...he claims it was original, as used by Allard. Sidney Alard was known for his engine swaps over the years...things like flathead fords running Ardun heads, the Caddy V-8's, whatever worked...

1st car a vette powered Lister? Fueled by testosterone...
2nd guess...(both just guesses) an Avanti ragtop...probably a replica, because I don't think they were ever ragtop...taillights were my clue. scratch the 2nd guess...door handles don't fit, the front end does, sorta. Could it be that weird hybrid Mopar & Maserati came out with some time ago?

2nd car - my first guess was Avanti as well. Second guess is TVR, but I am curious. It has an 80's feel to it......
What show is this? More pics?

1st car looks like a Shelby Cobra (replica?). 2nd? Maybe an Avanti?

Second one is definitely an f-body of some sort. It's hard to recognize which one exactly without rust.

The first is an Avanti, however it has had the ragtop modification.
PWD72s, excellent job. It is based on the Lister, however it is called the Dragon. A fella with too much money decided that he wanted his own design. So, over in Grantham NH this guy, named John Chestnut is building these in his new factory. He has built 5 and has orders for several more I guess. He started with assorted running gear but, has moved to using camaro running gear and 500 horse stock car motors. Lots of fun to watch at local SCDA events,pretty much laps the field. This show was at the Budwieser plant in Merrimack NH.

Hey, it's nice to know that I can still remember the 60's! Some of the decade, anyway...
