Arguably the biggest talking point of Worldwide Auctioneers’ Scottsdale sale, taking place on 18 January, is the ‘farm find’ Aston Martin DB4. A ultra-rare left-hand-drive example, it’s lain forgotten on a Massachusetts farm for the last 45 years and, as you can see, will take a significant restoration to get it road-worthy. That said, its originality is beguiling, and certainly something that its next owner should consider preserving. The auction house has attached a pre-sale estimate of 375,000-475,000 US dollars, and it’ll certainly be one to watch when it goes under the hammer this week. Other lots that caught our eye included the single-owner 1995 Bugatti EB110 (est. 750,000-850,000 dollars), the beautifully restored 1972 Toyota FJ43 (50,000-60,000 dollars) and the first Shelby Mustang GT350H finished in black and gold (190,000-240,000 dollars). You can browse the entire catalogue in the Classic Driver Market.
