Description
- Comprehensively restored at great expense by Noble House Classics - Matching engine and chassis numbers - A well-known and beautifully presented example Two years after the introduction of the DB2/4 Mark II came the DB Mk
III, 551 of which, mainly saloons, were made between March 1957 and July 1959.
Externally the most obvious change was the adoption of a DB3S-style grille, establishing the 'hallmark' look of subsequent Aston Martins, which had been drawn up by Tickford designer, Bert Thickpenny.
This restyled nose give the car a more imposing look while the interior boasted a redesigned dashboard with instruments grouped in a cowled panel ahead of the driver.
The engine benefited from an extensive redesign by Tadek Marek (newly arrived from Austin) and featured, among other improvements, a stiffer block, stronger crankshaft and a new cylinder head with bigger valves.
162bhp was available with the single-pipe exhaust system, 178bhp with the optional twin-pipe version.
