1965 Aston Martin DB6 Coupé
- Engine
- Twin-cam alloy inline-six, designed by Tadek Marek
A 1965–1970 Aston Martin DB6 Coupé, chassis DB6/2474/R, delivered new in right-hand drive to London and fitted with automatic transmission, chrome wire wheels, heated rear screen, and a power aerial. Powered by its original Tadek Marek twin-cam alloy straight-six, the car spent its early life in the United Kingdom before moving to Germany in the mid-1980s. It subsequently entered the Petitjean collection in France in 1986, where it has been in static storage for many years. The interior appears largely original; the exterior was repainted in 1990.
