The car is accompanied by the original factory sheet, which lists all production details, confirming the absolute matching of the engine numbers (DBA1338) and chassis (AM.300.3.1720), as well as the original color configuration with “Pacific Blue” body and Connolly beige leather interior VM3099.

Allan Shantz, residing in Toronto (Ontario, Canada), as certified in the original sheet and confirmed by the last Canadian registration document issued in April 2011, still registered to the same owner. THE ENGLISH PERIOD On June 2, 2011, the DB2/4 MkIII was imported to England by JD Joseph Ltd, and in July 2011 entrusted to the auction house Coys for the Blenheim Palace auction, where it was sold for £85,000 to Mr. Michael Ramon Erwich, owner of the prestigious Spellbound Cars company in Great Westwood (UK), a workshop renowned internationally for the restoration of classic Aston Martins. At that time, the vehicle was in exceptional preservation condition, complete with every original detail, with a perfectly intact aluminum body.

In February 2017, during the advanced stages of work, the vehicle was sold to an Italian collector for £200,000, as per the official invoice. At the time of sale, the chassis and aluminum panels were already perfectly prepared and ready for painting in the original “Pacific Blue” color. The mechanical groups – front axle, rear axle, gearbox, electrical system, instrumentation, and chrome parts – were already professionally restored. Imported to Italy, the painting was carried out by Carrozzeria Ercolani in Faenza, using original Aston Martin Pacific Blue paint imported from the UK. The mechanical and final assembly was handled by Officina Fiani in Rome, specialized in the restoration of vintage English cars. Here the engine was completely overhauled with the replacement of cylinders and pistons, while the body and mechanics were realigned according to the original specifications. The interiors were reupholstered by hand with original Connolly leather code VM3099, as per the production sheet, purchased directly from the factory and accompanied by an authenticity certificate dated October 12, 2020. CERTIFICATIONS AND CURRENT CONDITION On November 9, 2020, the vehicle obtained the ASI Historical Relevance Certificate. On March 10, 2021, after testing, it was registered in Italy. Since then, it has only covered 420 miles of break-in.
