1954 Aston Martin DB2/4 Drophead Coupé

I’m often asked about the Aston Martin that was driven by Tippi Hedren in the 1963 Alfred Hitchcock film, ‘The Birds’. Well, the AMHT Register tells us that it was a DB2/4 Drophead coupe, chassis number LML/944 that was loaned to Universal Studios in 1963 especially for the film. This famous car still exists and lives in a private collection in the USA.

Fairly common in older European and Japanese cars actually, along with shortwave bands and Euro-spec broadcast frequencies.

"The Birds" is still a great movie and as ultimately terrifying as a horror movie gets. The whole thing is "unsettling" which is the mark of a great horror film. Not SFX or how much blood and gore you can pack into it.
