1956 Aston Martin DB3S

This car was part of a display at the Christie's International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992.
It's a 1956 Aston Martin DB3S with a 6-cylinder inline 2,992cc Lagonda engine, and although it bears the number 8 it did not take part in any of the races at that meeting. It looks identical to the car that finished second in the 1956 Le Mans 24 Hour Race driven by Stirling Moss and Peter Collins (even having the same racing number), but I've not been able to confirm that it's that actual car.
