Just 30 (possibly 31) DB3Ss were built, and 10 (possibly 11) of these were works cars, including this early chassis DB3S/4 with its original egg-crate grille. Later cars had smaller grilles and faired-in headlights. This car first raced at LeMans in 1953 but retired there. It later raced at Silverstone, Goodwood and the Mille Miglia with mixed results. Drivers included Reg Parnell, Dennis Thompson and Peter Collins. The company sold the car to privateer Graham Whithead who later sold it to the Hon. S. Plunkett. The car also spent several years in New Zealand.
