Philip Kenyon bought the car in 1953, seen here with his daughters Joan and Ann.
A clapped-out classic car that has spent almost 50 years languishing in a garage is tipped to sell for £55,000.
The rare and original Aston Martin Mk II saloon car was built in 1936 and was one of just 24 made by the famous British marque.
The model now for sale was bought in 1951 for a mere £300 by the late Philip Kenyon.
The war hero electrical engineer happily drove it throughout the 1950s and '60s before its handbrake broke and put it in a garage.
