Story Behind an Aston DB5 Restoration
Great to be able to produce a system for this DB5 and be a part of getting this classic Aston back on the road.
Fantastic story and wonderfully filmed by Pink Banana studios.

Nice. Many times things that are 'passed' down just get sold or tossed off. Nice when the younger generation see's the value, not just monetary, in things. I have my father's Rolex he got when he graduated from the Naval Academy in '52. Was a pilot and wore it in missions during Korean and Vietnam wars. I have two daughters and have thought what will be it's future? Neither of them has any interest in it.

That brings back memories--being Scottish--and my dream car was an E-type while the Aston at twice the price was beyond any dreams.It took me to 65 years to get my first Aston--but worth the wait.
The only point in common with that DB5 was that my Mini Cooper also had Pirelli Cinturato tyres.

That's a nice story. I have a 13 Vantage that I plan to keep until the day I die with the possible exception of trading it for a same era Vanquish. Either way I hope to pass it along to one of my children so they can get the same enjoyment from it as I have been fortunate enough to have had.
