¡Aston Martin V8 de 1972 en Subasta!

Aston Martin ha construido más de 1.100 DB4. Han creado números similares de DB5 y DB6, entonces, ¿por qué solo crearon 288 de los AMV8 Serie 2?

El AMV8 tiene un nombre poco apropiado, ya que la Serie 1 del "Aston Martin V8" era en realidad un DBSV8. Cuando llegó la Serie 2, la designación "DB" se eliminó, en gran parte porque los Desarrollos de la Compañía habían tomado el relevo de David Brown.

Los desarrollos de la compañía continuaron los cambios que Brown ya había iniciado, eliminando la configuración de los cuatro faros y reemplazándolos con dos faros delanteros de 7 pulgadas que flanquean una parrilla de malla negra. La Serie 2 se construyó entre abril de 1972 y julio de 1973.

Con solo 288 ejemplos de este automóvil en construcción, es un hallazgo raro. Carsales.com tiene un modelo aún más raro en subasta. Catalogado como el número 47 de 288, se informó que este automóvil fue construido para uno de los directores de Desarrollos de la Compañía, y estaba equipado con algunos accesorios no estándar.

El automóvil tiene un precio de $ 295,000, pero representa una ganancia inesperada y potencial si considera que el precio del DB4 y DB5 se acerca a un millón de dólares, y se produjeron en cantidades mucho mayores. Por raro que sea el AMV8, y considerando su lugar en la historia de Aston Martin, este automóvil podría ser una joya.

‘Barn Find’ Aston Martin DBSV8 up for Auction

Joining the H&H Classics’ Duxford sale is an Aston Martin which most people won’t recognize because this DBSV8 has been hidden for 40 years.

Named the ‘Sotheby Special’, after sponsor W.D. & H.O. Wills’ brand of cigarettes (yes, the ‘Sotheby’ comes from a short-lived licensing deal with the auction house), the cutting edge lines of the car were by Ogle Design.

The Sotheby Special was based on an Aston Martin DBS V8 chassis (DBSV8/10380/R), with outrageous 1970s fiberglass coachwork supported on a Reynolds 531 tubular steel frame. The entire ‘glasshouse’ is in Perspex. Under the bonnet lies an early prototype Aston Martin V8, while the cockpit is a riot of bright green courtesy of ‘banquette’ seating for three .

A striking feature of the rear of the car is the strip of 22 rear lights. The harder the driver pressed the brake pedal the more lights were lit up.

The car was built purely for show, was never road-registered and will require much loving care to bring it back to ‘Motor Show’ condition. A second, fully functioning car was manufactured for promotional duties (later to be repainted in Embassy colors for use by Graham Hill’s Grand Prix team) and a third commissioned by a private individual who, once seeing the car on BBC TV’s Tomorrow’s World, simply had to have one, even at a cost in 1973 of £28,750. At the time the standard V8 Saloon was listed at £8,749.

The original Sotheby Special, thought lost for so many years, or confused with the second chassis, was disassembled after it left the show circuit and was then sold and placed in long-term storage. H&H will offer this highly significant car at an estimate of £100,000 - 120,000 at its October 14, 2015 Imperial War Museum, Duxford, Cambs sale.
