Selling A 1968 Aston Martin DB6 Convertible
Also named Volante for its Convertible top, the 1968 Aston Martin DB6 Convertible is the third model of 6-cylinder sport cars made by the brand in the 1960’s. The first examples were based on the shorter wheel chassis of the DB5 when the car was launched in 1965. Examples made in 1968, however, use the DB6 new chassis. In addition to being longer, it is also important to note that Aston Martin dropped the superleggera construction technique, which added weight but made the car more stable at high speed (also thanks to better aerodynamics on the bodywork). While it shares a lot of design elements with the DB4 and DB5, the Aston Martin DB6 can be easily identified with the split bumpers and the Kamm-style rear end. Not only was the DB6 more spacious, especially in the rear, but also it was more luxurious, with options such as power steering and air conditioning. The 4-Liter double overhead camshaft 6-cylinder engine gave the DB6 282hp at 5,500 rpm – quite powerful for its era. Being a front engine, rear wheel drive combination, it was a great driver’s vehicle. Of course, these are things you already know as a DB6 Convertible owner.
