Aston Martin DB2/4 Drophead Coupe (1953 - 1955)

In addition to the two door hatch, the DB2/4 was offered as this sophisticated convertible, the drophead coupe. At least 102 of these fine cars were built during the two year production run.

I'm often asked about the Aston Martin that was used in the Alfred Hitchcock film, The Birds. Well, the AMOC register tells us that it was a DB2/4 Drophead coupe that was loaned to Universal Studios in 1963 especially for the film. I believe that the car still exists and lives in the US.
