This DB4 Series IV Coupe was ordered new in California Sage Green
with Fawn leather through Aston Martin dealer, Hornburg Motors. It
was delivered to its first registered owner, Mr. D. Wolfe, Tucson,
Arizona. Having retained the DB4 for over 30 years, ownership
history and records show Mr. Wolfe as the DB4's caretaker through
the late 1980's. Then owned by well-known AMOC member and Aston
collector, Mr. C. Salyer, the DB4 was cosmetically and mechanically
restored by West Coast specialists. At this time, the DB4's color
combination was Aston Racing Green with Black leather interior, its
cam covers were painted Red, it had lost its front and rear bumpers
and its fenders flares had been slightly widened to fit and house
wider 289 Cobra wire wheels with larger tires. It was quite the DB4
hot rod.
Subsequent ownership history shows, Mr. B. Buerlin, Richmond,
Virginia having owned this DB4, showing it at various Aston Martin
Owners Club events throughout the 1990's.
Then purchased by its next long term caretaker. Subsequently in
early 2002 this DB4 was delivered to Autosport Designs for
restoration. The restoration was photo documented, the DB4 stripped
to metal, the fender flares returned to stock configuration and no
stone left unturned to return this DB4 to its former glory. During
the restoration, it was decided to paint the DB4, rare and seldom
seen Almond Green Metallic with Black leather interior and Black
Wilton Wool carpets. The DB4 received various updates and upgrades
including: Harvey Bailey handling kit, Telescopic rear shock
absorbers conversion, replacing the original, antiquated lever arm
shocks, Electronic ignition, a period factory radio box and a
period Becker AM/FM radio. Having remained in his stewardship for
nearly 30 years, this DB4 has accumulated approximately 3,000 miles
since restoration.
In its most recent collector ownership, this DB4 has had the
following service, maintenance and upgrades performed: Full service
maintenance to include all filters and fluids, Spark plugs, Cooling
system flush, Brake fluid flush, Bleed clutch hydraulics, Checked
all lights, repaired reverse and license plate lights, Signal
switch refurbished, Supplied and installed a new glovebox lock and
keys, Repair of oil pressure gauge leak, Supply and installation of
new window channel felts, Supply and install of driver and
passenger door mirrors, Supply and install of period round fog
light to the front bumper, Tightened ignition switch in dash,
Replaced shift knob knurled nut.
Serviced and cared for since restoration, this DB4 is ready and
able for immediately use and touring pleasure as well as able to
hold its own on any concours lawn. The Aston Martin DB4 is an ideal
vintage motorcar and as comfortable around town as it is on lengthy
journeys. In our opinion, one of the best candidates and eligible
for some of the world's finest rallies.
Complete with ownership, service histories, well-known provenance
and in superbly restored condition, this DB4 must be considered one
of the finest in today's market.
