Staff at Classic Motor Cars (CMC) in Bridgnorth waved goodbye to the Aston Martin Bulldog after they had spent more than 7,000 hours and more than four years restoring the one-off supercar.
The Bulldog was built as a prototype in 1979, and boasted a speed of up to 200mph, but the vehicle never achieved its top speed at the time of its unveiling.
The prototype never went into production and the Aston Martin Bulldog disappeared for a number of years, until it was bought by American businessman and car collector Phillip Sarofim who asked CMC to restore the car.
