Description
ASTON MARTIN DB6 MKI SALOON RHD
1969
DB6 3542/ R
Gris métal intérieur cuir rouge à passepoil bleu
Last model produced under David Brown's direction, with around 1, 700 examples, the DB6, which succeeds the DB5, remains an icon of its generation.
A design close to its predecessor, recognized build quality and a powerful engine; it was one of Aston Martin's greatest successes.
Regarded as one of the fastest GTs of its era, thanks in particular to its 4. 0-litre inline-six delivering over 280 horsepower and the 'Superleggera' construction providing a robust yet lightweight chassis.
This example is rather well-presented.
The bodywork has been redone in the past.
The gaps/ alignments are satisfactory.
All chromes are present and in good condition.
The paint shows a few minor defects, but overall it's of high quality.
The red interior makes an impact.
The upholstery, slightly patinated; the silky carpets and the dashboard in this red and brushed-aluminium combo give it a very particular charm.
Note the rare original Webasto sunroof.
The power steering and the 3-speed Borg-Wagner automatic transmission are appreciated.
It is equipped with the 4. 0L six-cylinder engine fed by three SU HD8 carburettors that have undergone a full strip-down and rebuild.
The compression readings confirm the engine's good health.
Equipped with adjustable KRYPTON GAS shock absorbers, a stainless steel exhaust line and a FACET fuel pump.
A general inspection of the car was carried out by a professional (nearly €20, 000 in invoices), complemented by a tune-up and carburation check following the expert's recommendations.
A car that has retained all its charm over time. The silver-grey, sober and refined colour combination, with the vivid red interior, makes for an exemplar of rare elegance.
