Imagine walking into an old barn and finding a classic car. Now imagine walking into an old barn and finding an extremely rare 1962 Aston Martin DB4.
With only 1100 DB4s ever made, finding one in a barn is not something most of us will ever even dream of being fortunate enough to do.
However, that is exactly what happened recently when a barn find turned out to be a very special car!
The car in question belonged to a man who, after returning from the Vietnam war in the 1970s, returned to work at a local car body shop. After doing some work on his boss’s car, he was gifted the DB4. He towed it home and carefully parked this rare classic car in his barn with the plan of eventually restoring it.
Unfortunately, the restoration never happened and the car sat in the barn until it was found more than 30 years later.
The 1962 Aston Martin DB4 has a 3.7-litre straight-six petrol engine and, even in its current state, is valued at around £270 000. When fully restored, previous DB4s have sold for more than £1 million.
This DB4 is currently for sale in New York through Gullwing Motor Cars.

We love Aston Martins here at Bridge Classic Cars and we have had a wide range of them in the workshop over the years. Below is just a small example of some of the beautiful Astons we have seen and, although they might not be as rare as the one found recently in an old barn, they are all equally as stunning to look at.
