Indeed, it's well known in Aston circles.



...XMC 76 and XMC 77. They were a new development of the DB2 mainly especially for racing with drilled chassis and more powerful engine. Thus they even received their own code : DP47. The interior was also stripped and received racing seats.

Full history here: http://astonuts.free.fr/PAGES/DB2pharesE.html
I partnered the chap who owns XMC 77 on a AMOC european road trip in the 80's. On the way home 77 popped a core plug and 76 towed us back home from Dover. (I think 76 had been shipped in from Oz just to join the event.) I have some pictures somewhere, I must dig them out.

Where the action was 75 years ago, Gold beach. Just finished a 400 mile trip to the beaches in a 75 year old jeep.

Nice pic, is that the remains of a mulberry in the background?
