Not impressed with the lines of the car but interesting engine set up.

More like the Cobra's father than cousin! I think I like the Allard better, but either one is very cool.

Jay also did a segment (video) with the same guy who also owns the Coupe. Might have done both or more videos on the same day at the Museum now that I think about it...

The Coupe video was head lined as "Guys that own cooler car's than me (Jay)." I was chuckling thinking to myself, nah, NOBODY own's cooler cars than Leno. Then the Coupe came out, I was like, "I get it, it really is about guy's that own cooler car's than Jay."

I had another look at it. It seems unstable as he softly drives it in the parking lot. Hard to imagine that was the king of the road at Sebring

MV, remember it was 1953; the sophistication we enjoy was just getting started. Here are some of the competition that year:
