In 1956, Aston Martin of England produced a handful of DBR roadsters to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans (France) and other world-class endurance-racing events. With Stirling Moss, Carroll Shelby and other legendary drivers behind the wheel, the DBR claimed victories throughout Europe and America between 1956 and ’59. The winning Le Mans entry is worth millions of dollars, but now anyone with $13,000 can purchase a replica kit from Exomotive of Roswell, Ga. The basic package includes a fiberglass body attached to a space frame (tubular) chassis that’s designed to accept the running gear from a 1990-2005 Mazda Miata that you supply.
