Aston Martin Vantage “Project Vulcan” Build
 
Introducing the Aston Martin Vantage “Project Vulcan”.

I was finally able to put my vision and ideas to rendering and now it’s time to turn this rendering into reality. Let the build begin!

I’ll be documenting the full build of my 2020 Aston Martin Vantage in this thread. Looking forward to sharing with other Aston owners throughout the process and hosting drives/meets for those of you in SoCal.

Impressive amount of work to be done, can't wait to see it in person.

Is this for track only or street too? Are you planning a front lift? It sure looks the business! Looking forward to following your build.

Thanks! The lower aero and suspension height are still TBD but an integrated front lift would be something I’d love to incorporate in the future.

Cant wait to see this come to reality. Very limited aftermarket aesthetics available so will be nice to see the custom fabrication. Be sure to Vlog the adventures!

Super limited aftermarket support. I will be working with a few select companies that currently offer parts but a lot of the build will be custom.

Wow... Nice car!

I am working through the purchase of a DB11 right now....next car up on my bucket list.

LuvBurninFuel Feb 27, 2023 12:03 PM

Nice! The Vulcan is one of the best looking Aston Martins ever made in my opinion.

Something that might be overlooked by non-AM owners but is an annoyance to those of us that hate the way they look ha. It’s all about the details with this build! For those of you looking to tackle this project, here are a few photos of the process:

Since your plans include side exhaust in the future what in the idea for replacement of the rear exhaust panels? Just mesh or designer panels to fill the voids?

I am planning to retain the factory upper section of the rear diffuser as the natural body line/divider...but then essentially "gut" or remove everything below it and build a custom rear diffuser from there. I think once I post the rear shot of the car, it should help make more sense.
