I've often wondered exactly at what point in that shot does it switch from being an Aston to a Lancia Flaminia?. That's one convincing looking Aston DB4 if its actually a Lancia. To me that looks like a real DB4 convertible going over that edge.

It was at a point before that shot was taken. It's wearing wheel trims, not wires. The headlamps are wrong, the rear fin looks too narrow, and the instrument binnacle's too big.

..... and when the bonnet flew open it was hinged at the back whereas a real DB4 bonnet is hinged at the front

Very tidy 67 Holden Premier out and about today, with a 69 Corolla lurking in the background.

Classic and it's grandson near Charlotte Street yesterday - in fantastic nick as well. The rear window had an additional garden gate style catch on it, and behind the tints I could see a semi-solid partition wall between the rear seat and boot, so I hope the boot was full of bags of cash, tied up coppers and shooters....

There's probably "a job" on.... This was today.

some road rash.But hats off to the owner for not having it tucked away not being used.

Apart from the dropheads the others are RMAs and RMEs (I had the pleasure of owning on for six years in the 1990s) with the 1.5 litre engine and what looks like a RMB with the 2.5 litre engine.

Mine went off to Normandy when I sold it. A photo for old times sake
