About this car

One of only 75 DB4 GTs built between 1959 and 1963, this is a shortened-wheelbase, lightweight development of the DB4 with Touring-designed Superleggera construction. This car was delivered new in October 1960 to a Welsh garage owner and still wears its original combination of Sea Green over green Connolly hide.

Its competition history is unusually rich. It spent time in Australia, later passed through the hands of Hubert Fabri and Lord Drayson, and raced at events including the Goodwood Revival, Tour Auto and Le Mans Classic. Stirling Moss and Jack Brabham are both named among its drivers.

A body-off restoration was completed in 2015 and is documented with invoices and photographs. The car has covered about 3,600 miles since, and won an award at the 2020 Salon Privé concours. It is shown without bumpers, fitted with colour-coded bungs, and the original bumpers, handbook, tool roll and a history file come with it. It also features in Palawan Press's DB4 GT book.
