Can anyone identify this?

Hi

Struggling to identify the car pictured in these two photos from the late 1960's. Driven my late Uncle - Derek Mayston.

I would say it is an Allard from 1949/1950 period something like a K1, but I am sure there are experts who can correct me if necessary.

I'd be inclined to say a Allard K2 51/52 model
