Lot 30
A 1976 Aston Martin V8 Series III fast road car project, registration number OJU 607, chassis number 11467, black. First registered in August 1976 this exciting Series III V8 fast road project offers the next owner the opportunity to finish the car to their own specification and create a unique vehicle in the process. Considerable expenditure has been lavished upon this Aston with receipts on file for tens of thousands of pounds. The bodyshell has been refabricated and restored as necessary and is presented primer so the next custodian can finish the car in its original black or choose a colour of their own preference. The interior is the original tan leather which is in generally good condition and could be retained or changed to a bespoke colour of choice. Where this project becomes more interesting and exciting is the engine, gearbox and running gear which have seen considerable expenditure and uprating. The suspension has been reworked by Nitron Racing (Witney) with two way canister conversions front and rear, rear adjustable spring platforms with canister shocks and Eibach springs front and rear. The radius arms are rose jointed top and bottom, the differential is a rebuilt 3. 45:1 item with Quaife ATB with specifically machined hardened outer shafts, drive shafts are to race specification with inner and outer CV joints. The front brakes incorporate AP calipers and discs and the rears are standard calipers with AP brake discs, and the car retains the standard handbrake mechanism. The propshaft is a new heavy duty 3 inch diameter item. The original automatic floorpan has been changed for a three pedal manual item with brake bias. The petrol tank has been fabricated in aluminium and is a 120 litre capacity. The Weber 48 carburettors are fully rebuilt by RS Williams and are mounted on matched RS Williams manifolds. The exhaust consists of 1/ 8 inch stainless steel headers leading to 3 inch collectors, the rest of the bespoke exhaust system still requires fabricating. The engine, which still requires final assembly, has been extensively rebuilt and uprated by RS Williams including fully gas flowed and ported heads including special billet grind Kent cams, new valves, new seats, springs and guides. There are new 580X Cosworth pistons amongst other numerous new and reconditioned components. Amongst other items not fitted there is the original automatic gearbox, the original GKN alloy wheels and a Tremac six speed manual gearbox. There is a large history file covering the expenditure on this bespoke project and when completed the V8 coupé will be an exclusive, exhilarating, high performance road car with a unique specification. V5C, no MOT
