EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print is the remarkable Lincoln Zephyr engined Allard Special, driven by D. G. Silcock, as it competes in the prestigious RAC Rally of 1939. With its powerful 4378 cc engine and distinctive FLX650 registration number, this classic British automobile showcased both elegance and speed on the challenging rally course. The image depicts a thrilling moment during the rally, as Silcock skillfully maneuvers his Allard Special around a hairpin bend with precision and finesse. The car's sleek design and expert cornering capabilities are evident as it effortlessly conquers the rural countryside road. Bill Brunell, renowned for his exceptional photography skills, captures not only the action but also beautifully frames the scene with surrounding trees and plants that add to its rustic charm.
