History:
🇺🇸 This Aston Martin DB5 Convertible left the factory in June 1964 and was then delivered new to the United States in 1965. It is an especially rare example, as 123 DB5 Convertibles were produced, of which only 38 were left-hand-drive examples.
The car was initially delivered in an elegant Platinum specification with a red interior before being stored for many years in a barn in the United States.
🇮🇹 A complete body restoration was subsequently carried out in Italy around 2009, probably by Bacchelli & Villa, a workshop renowned for the quality of its restorations of classic Ferraris. On this occasion, the car was configured in a highly desirable “Triple Black” livery.
🇧🇪 The car then joined a Belgian collection before being acquired in 2012 by its current owner from Belgian specialist Michel Kruch.
📄 A file of invoices, together with an extensive photographic restoration file, accompanies the car and makes it possible to trace its history and the many works carried out over the years. This DB5 was notably the subject of an article in the French magazine British Motors in June 2017, with a copy included in the file.
Condition:
🚘 This DB5 Convertible is presented today in a superb specification and in very good overall condition. The restoration carried out in Italy has preserved all the elegance of the lines designed by Touring Superleggera.
The bodywork presents very well, as does the deep black paintwork, which particularly highlights the iconic proportions of the DB5 Convertible. The chrome, bodywork panel fit, and various exterior elements offer a very fine presentation. The black soft top harmoniously completes this particularly sought-after “Triple Black” specification.
The black leather interior is particularly elegant and consistent with the car’s current specification. The instrumentation and trim throughout present very well.
🔧 Mechanically, this DB5 has benefited from significant work in recent years. The engine was completely rebuilt in 2019 with the installation of new liners and pistons, increasing its displacement to 4.2 litres. The parts were supplied by marque specialist Cecil Cars, and the engine was completely dismantled and then carefully reassembled.
This DB5 Convertible represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most iconic and exclusive models in Aston Martin’s history. Very rarely offered on the market, particularly in left-hand drive, it will appeal to the most demanding collectors.
🛞 The tyres were replaced in 2018.
