HISTORY :
ASTON MARTIN DB4 GT Jet I 1960
The car was revealed at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show by Gruppo Bertone and
was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro who was only 22 years old at the time.
It was based on the Aston Martin DB4 GT and was originally finished
in light green and had a grey interior.
Owners and restoration
According to its most recent auction listing (2012),
it was first in Beirut before being sent to the US.
It's there that Victor Gauntlett, Aston Martin's Chairman found the car in bad shape and
sent it back to Newport Pagnell for a complete restoration by Aston Martin Works Service
under Kingsley Riding-Felce's supervision. The car had suffered an engine fire.
The car was purchased by Hans-Peter Weidemann (CH)
during its restoration which was completed in 1988.
Its inline six-cylinder, twin-cam 3.7-liter engine produces 302 bhp (225 kW)
at 6,000 rpm thanks to three Weber carburetors,
significantly more than the standard 240 bhp (179 kW) output.
0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) takes 6.1 seconds before an impressive top speed of 153 mph (246 km/h).
It has Girling four-wheel disc brakes which allowed the DB4 GT Bertone Jet
to become the first car in the world to perform a 0-100 mph-0 in less than 20 seconds.
The car was offered for auction at Bonhams' "The Aston Martin Works Sale" in May 2013 and
sold for £3,249,500 inc. premium. The car's chassis no. is 0201L and engine no. is 370/0201/GT.
