In the Beginning There Was Jet.(News)(Brief Article)
It was a young Giorgio Giugiaro, then at Bertone, who created the original Jet concept based on a DB4 GT in 1961. The aero coupe was shown at the Geneva and Turin salons of that year, but sadly it was never produced. This study, which sits on the final 76th DB4 GT chassis, has been fully restored, and has gone on to win several awards at worldwide concours.
Aston Martin Shooting Brakes
1965 DB5
There were 12 DB5 shooting brakes made-a prototype by Tickford in Newport Pagnell after the coachbuilder was bought by Aston Martin, and 11 more by Harold Radford's facility in Hammersmith, London. It is perhaps the best-looking of all previous Aston shooting brakes.
1967 DB6
Eight of these DB6s were made-two by FLM Panelcraft and six by Radford. One of the FLM Panelcraft shooters was used by F1 driver Innes Ireland as a demonstrator model on a daily basis, which had to be fun for the passengers.
