I am almost certain that metallic paint was available around the late 40s, Diederik. My mother had a ’51 Triumph Mayflower whose paint was certainly metallic grey. The paint supplier mentioned by Ben would also probably be able to confirm whether the metallic was around then. Do you have a recent picture of your Allard to post up, btw? Tim.
