Aston Martin DB2/4 Cabriolet, about 1953 or so. Bertone, perhaps, from the look of it?

....and yet another example of the coachbuilder's art. While the factory DB2/4 certainly wasn't a bad-looking car, it's positively dowdy-looking next to this example. Well done Bertone.

Yes, and to my eyes it looks a good few years younger too.
IMHO there was just no touching the Italians for beautiful cars in the 1950s and 60s..
