1970 Aston Martin DBS Sports Saloon
5-Speed with Vantage Spec
UpgradeThis 1970 Aston Martin DBS Sports Saloon
is a desirable 5-speed example that's been upgraded to Vantage
spec. Originally completed in Black over Red Connolly leather, it
is precisely the color scheme with which it appears
today. Its factory build sheet notes that
this DBS was purchased new in White
Plains, New York through J.S. Inskip. Ordered with the ZF 5-speed
manual, options included air conditioning, power assisted steering,
a Bosch New Yorker Radio, Fiamm horns, dual rear lap belts, and
dual head rests. While not originally noted as being ordered as a
Vantage-spec example, at some point the engine was upgraded to the
more powerful specification with a triple Weber carburetor setup
that this DBS still has today. An honest and
largely original example that's been off the road and in storage
for several years and is not currently running. It is advised that
a thorough servicing be carried out prior to
use. Well optioned with 5-Speed manual
transmission, A/C, and radio Upgraded to Vantage specification with
a triple Weber carburetors Originally delivered to New
York Documented by copies of its original build sheet The
last Aston Martin under Sir David
Brown's leadership Price: $117,500
