dsl ◊ 2012-06-02 12:10	Looks earlier than DB4 to me for chrome side trim and drooping wingline to headlamps - probably 1956+ DB2/4 Mark II Fixedhead Coupe - http://www.astonmartins.com/feltham/db2_4_m2_fixed_head_coupe.htm ; the very rare (5 built) DB Mark III Fixed Head Coupe does not seem to have the side chrome - http://www.astonmartins.com/feltham/db_mk_iii_fhc.htm . Slight glimpse of a Minx S3 convertible behind the crossing furniture. Good showroom shot for Radford - later did all those custom Minis and dabbled with the Cresta PB http://bpostwarclassics.runboard.com/t10064 , but in 61 were finishing converting various RR/Bentleys eg /vehicle.php?id=453333 , /vehicle.php?id=443840 . -- Last edit: 2012-06-02 12:23:00
