This Aston Martin is the link between the 1950s DB2 cars designed by Claude Hill and the more modern Touring designed Aston Martin DB4 that became such an icon of the 1960s. Aston martin built 551 Aston Martin MK IIIs of which 84 were dropheads. This car is one of 14 built with the Special Series 180 bhp DBD engine and is the only left-hand drive MK III drophead. Its original owner was American art collector Lawrence Bloedel who collected the car from the Aston Martin factory in Feltham in England. After three other owners the current owner acquired the car in 1992. He undertook a complete restoration back to its original condition which was completed in 2010.
