In 1965, a man named David Brown was very much in love with his Aston Martin DB5. Unfortunately, during the weekends, he found it to be somewhat unsuitable to carry his dogs and his insane amount of hunting gear in the boot. What to do, what to do… Yes, ask Aston Martin to build a custom shooting break out of the DB5! Aston were busy enough making the regular DB5, so the coachfirm of Harold Radford built a custom, beautiful, gorgeous, stunning DB5 SB to our man David and to 11 other customers. It was practical, still very fast, gorgeous, and pretty much unique. Can you find anything wrong with it other than the price? I can’t. I’d give a pinky you know. — original image found via analogdialog
