Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato Sanction 3
This model was presented at the London Motor Show in October 1960. Based on the DB4 GT, but foreseen of brilliant coachwork by the hand of Ercole Spada for account of Zagato. Even though there were high expectations, there was a limited demand and finally a mere 19 original models were built. In the meantime, this model has received iconic status, and original models fetch many millions. In 1987 Aston Martin built 4 "continuations" (Sanction 2) on the correct chassis, and a few years later Zagato also built two, of which this is a model. One needs more than the fingers on one hand to count the number of unofficial replicas...
