Listing - Professional conversion to left-hand drive - Book has
been edited with pictures and story of this DB6 . According to a
copy of the original factory build sheet, this DB6 was initially
purchased by D.G. Lynall, of Warwickshire, England, through
Bradbury's Garage Limited, with a guarantee issued on May 30, 1966.
Originally Oyster shell and trimmed with red Connolly leather
upholstery, 2719/R was factory-specified with a Vantage engine,
chrome wire wheels, a heated rear screen, three-ear knock-offs, and
a Motorola radio with a power antenna. Aston Martin records
indicate a factory maintenance history through March 1968, and by
the early-1980s, the car was in the possession of Laurence Kayne,
of Berkeley Square Ltd. On April 3, 1984, Mr. Kayne sold 2719/R to
Scott Vincent, who imported the car to the United States.
Eventually coming into the care of Arthur Wexler, of Larchmont, New
York, the DB6 was purchased in 1990 by Peter Ungen and Marjan
Kraljevic, a well-known Aston Martin expert who cut his teeth
working on the race cars of famed championship driver Bob Grossman
after escaping from communist Yugoslavia. Hired as a mechanic by
Aston Martin North America in 1977, Mr. Kraljevic eventually became
the chief mechanic of Aston Martin Vintage Racing Services during
the 1980s, before founding his own dedicated Aston Martin repair
and restoration facility, Vantage Motors, of Stamford, Connecticut,
in 1990. Mr. Kraljevic was obviously an ideal custodian for 2719/R,
which he bought outright from his partner in 1991. Initially merely
returning the car to a reliable running state, Mr. Kraljevic began
a complete nut-and-bolt restoration in late-2004, which was nothing
short of a true labor of love. Irrespective of cost, his
well-conceived and carefully executed work reproduced the DB6 to
its highly desirable current state. The DB6 has now been reborn
with left-hand drive, utilizing a factory LHD dashboard, refining
the powerful DB6 Vantage's drivability for American roadways. The
original right-hand drive dashboard panel and DCOE 45 Weber
carburetors have been retained and are included, at the buyer's
shipping expense, from Connecticut, for the owner who might someday
wish to return the car to its original configuration. In addition
to the thoughtful upgrades, more standard restoration measures were
conducted, such as a rebuild of the brakes and original shocks and
a general refurbishment of virtually every mechanical and cosmetic
component, including a stunning refinish in Aston Martin Black
Pearl with a new interior in caramel tan. Completed in the summer
of 2006 and documented with a comprehensive account of invoices.
