Product Description
Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato replica of 2 VEV as driven by Jim Clark at the Goodwood Tourist Trophy Race on 8th August 1961. Racing as No. 3 for the Essex Racing Team, he came fourth, covering 107 laps. His other great British rival, Stirling Moss won the race in a Ferrari.
Our metallic green Aston Martin features the racing number 3 on the doors, the centre of the bonnet and also on the offside rear. Scottish born in Fife and raised in the Berwickshire Borders, the son of a sheep farmer, Jim Clark's amazing racing career was cut short when he was tragically killed at the Hockenheimring during a Formula 2 race held in pouring rain on 7th April 1968. He came off the track in mysterious circumstances and crashed into a tree. He was only 32 years old.
