Selling A 1950 Aston Martin DB2 Drophead Coupe

 

Despite its official launch at the 1950 New York Motor Show, the Aston Martin DB2 actually appeared first at the 1949 24 Hours of Le Mans race and received much acclaim and notoriety for its motorsports successes. Designed by Frank Feeley, the classic DB2 body was configured as a two-seat touring car in both Fixed-Head Coupe and Drophead Coupe styles. It would be considered Aston Martin’s first production car under their new owner, David Brown – hence the “DB” in the name – and would receive praise for blending Le Mans style performance with the comfort and practicality of a touring car. Under the hood, the 1950 Aston Martin DB2 Drophead Coupe and Fixed-Head Coupe models would receive a DOHC Lagonda six-cylinder engine that was capable of 115hp in standard tune and 125hp in Vantage tune. As you know, the 1950 Aston Martin DB2 Drophead Coupe is an excellent example of early Aston Martin design and engineering. With just over 400 examples produced, of which approximately 97 were Drophead Coupe models, the classic is quite rare and sought-after today. As such, it would be the pleasure of the Alex Manos team to learn more about your particular DB2 classic.
