Aston Martin DB2 Vantage

Aston Martin DB2 Vantage 1953 LHD Chassis: LML 50/357 Engine : VB6B/50/1178   This is one of the very few factory Vantage DB2 in LHD. We had the chance to buy this early Aston Martin a couple of years ago and seized the opportunity with both hands.   From the Aston Martin factory build sheet we also found out that this DB2 is still matching numbers. Look  at the result now after a couple of thousand hours have been invested by our specialist classic car workshop into this DB2...!   A gleaming beauty nut and bolt restored respecting the original specifications and colour combination. All this was possible because at the start of this restoration we could save samples of the original paint (Carnation Red Belco 224) and upholstery (Muirheads VM 3230) enabling us to reproduce the body colour and trim exactly right.   We started from a bare chassis and a completely stripped substructure and aluminium body. Hundreds of photos and invoices show convincingly that no compromises were made.   Our classic car friends and customers can testify: we have all the time Aston Martins in our workshop and have restored at least two dozens. Over the years we could establish a long term professional relationship with the Aston Martin colleagues and specialists in the UK. They helped us to obtain spare parts and gave us expert advice when necessary. Aston Martin specialist Tim Stamper rebuilt he 6-cylinder engine for us.   The only extravaganza we allowed ourselves to do was to fit Borrani wire wheels instead of traditional Dunlop ones. Only recently the first test drives were made. My technical director Luc and myself fully agree: one of the best Aston Martins that came out of our classic car garage! Comes with a pile of documents, photos, invoices, letters, etc... Conclusion: a DB2 impossible to fault!
