His father bought a dilapidated DB2/4 Mk II – and over the next couple of years, they set about restoring it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601036517114-F1WXXY1YLN0GKBXMIOYV/102012%2B3BYR.jpg Our Story This DB2 gave way to a DB4 – a well-known car in the AMOC. Renovated and enhanced to make it the most competitive standard specification DB4 competing, David finished second only to a fully modified DB4 in the AMOC Championship of 1999. At this time, David was working for Wren Classics, but he soon left to start his own business – Davron – with ex-Aston Martin R&D Engineer, Ron Washer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601036189884-614IEN1YDTUK9LR6SB11/1091-J+Reed+Goodwood+2005.JPG Our Story By this time, David’s father had also moved on to his next Aston Martin project, selling his DB2/4 Mk II to buy a DB 2/4 Mk III. This became the next family race car, as rebuilding and racing was carried out by David, his father and his brother Tony for over 25 years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601036629988-KYO00UDBPWDO7K8O0VA7/102208%2BRYK1R.jpg Our Story In 2000, the DB4 was sold, and the first production V8 Vantage was bought. Competed by both David and Anne at AMOC events, this car is still part of their garage! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601035953047-V8PN15GEUOYWNK07967C/101717%2BNLO%2B946.jpg Our Story David eventually sold his Mk I to buy a DB2 Drophead DHC. This car was unfinished, so he set about rebuilding and then competing it in over the next few years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601035808325-32YA1UT04JRUN0D8NQNN/101648%2BSTC%2B522.jpg Our Story 1977 saw David move to Saudi Arabia and a year later he bought his first car on his own – another DB2/4 Mk I. Now, as part of the Aston Martin Owner’s Club (AMOC) he started competing at the Curborough sprint. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601035637938-29NQ7J3ZREP9VDJ1UB7I/101446%2BDB24%2BMk%2BI.jpg Our Story In 1975, David’s father bought his second Aston Martin, this time a DB2/4 Mk I. After cutting a tree down just to be able to open the garage where this beautiful car was hidden, work began on turning it into a very competitive race car. The car was competed over nine years as a father, son and daughter team. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1601037145393-PUE3D6DNRCTLDJC9K7P7/DB2+at+Spa+2018.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1600352118089-1ZDTHL7P7KLTU64UNJKJ/Barn+1+copy.png Our Story https://www.djrclassics.com/restoration daily 0.75 2020-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/9d4c90b4-4b9b-4628-b018-b30904bebc82/Lagonda+at+Auction.jpg Restoration 2.6 Lagonda Drophead Coupe https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/d12a3190-4ac9-4d55-b636-41631aecbe44/Car+as+Collected.jpg Restoration Richard Attwood DB2/4 Mk 1 Restoration https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1600352617837-Z9QR3VR4MU62SDAA5RYW/DB2+at+Spa+2018.jpg Restoration Full restoration of a 1953 Aston Martin DB2 - from wreckage to racing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5ca02b5885542b13bd62cd/1600352677541-AE61P3B7WAOLT3XOMZUR/2351_DB5+rear+sill+corrosion.JPG Restoration Sill Restoration for an Aston Martin DB5.
