Selling A 1963 Aston Martin DB5

 

Unveiled to the public in 1963, the Aston Martin DB5 represented the continued evolution of the DB-series Aston Martins. Produced through 1965, the Aston Martin DB5 would be quite similar to the DB4 Series V Vantage edition it replaced. The main difference between the 1963 Aston Martin DB5 and the DB4 Series V Vantage, however, would be the adoption of a 4.0L engine and five-speed manual gearbox. Throughout production, approximately 1,059 examples of the DB5 would be produced; it was available in Coupe or Convertible form. Buyers during the era also had the option to purchase the DB5 with a Vantage engine upgrade, while gave the car triple Weber carburetors and nearly 314hp. Of the 1.059 examples manufactured, it is estimated that only 65 were outfitted with the Vantage engine. As would be expected, the Vantage edition DB5 is quite popular today. The 1963 Aston Martin DB5 also received a few detail upgrades, which included an alternator, tinted glass, four exhaust silencers, and power windows to name just a few.
