Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Driving lights. Barn find with 80,347 miles, photographed for the catalog still in the garage with a mid engined sports racer of indeterminate type stuffed vertically into the single stall beside it, body on the (cars) right and tube frame on the left. Rather amazing and not a little surprising it could be extricated without serious injury (to car or rescuers both.)

Market commentary

It is simply amazing what some people will pay for the chance to nurse an old car back to health. The very best thing that could be said for this DB4 is that it was complete. Other than that it is scrofulous, probably reeks of mildew and mold and will be worth little more than this when it is returned to running condition, to say nothing of being able to touch it without wearing gloves for fear of contracting some contagion.
