Record Details

This February 1972 car was in the factory when David Brown sold the company and is one of the very last cars that can legitimately be called a David Brown Aston. This is one of only 70 or so manual cars out of a production run of 402 in total.

Originally painted Ascot Grey the car was little used for the early part of its life with less than 1,000 miles between services. The car was put into storage for a number of years then used briefly before being sold with just 29,000 miles on the clock.

Due to pickling of the paint, the car was resprayed by Spraytec after being taken back to bare metal and locally made good by Bodylines. A decision was made to change the colour as the original grey was not very flattering to the car. Whilst being painted the engine was rebuilt to unleaded 580 specification with larger valves, ported and polished cylinder heads. The injection system was refurbished and the car tuned on a rolling road by Wren and Andy Chapman. The interior trim on this car is immaculate and original with a nice subtle Pattination. The boot area has been trimmed and has its original tool kit and jack.

Recent work includes painting of the underside and arches, detailing of the engine bay and polishing of the wheels as well as new chrome, a wood rim wheel by David Keeling and reconditioned air conditioning by Motoclimate.

This car is probably one of the best DBS V8's available and is stunning in all respects and very original down to its 8 track radio and glove box manual.

Includes:
Stainless Steel Exhaust System
New Air-conditioning
8 Tack Tape Player (And Some Tapes)
Wood Rim Wheel (And Original Leather Type)
Full Tool Kit Including Jack
History Including Bills, Photos, Mot's, Tax Disks And Sales Documents From New.
