1952 Aston Martin DB2 Vantage Drophead Coupé only 98 made, restor For Sale

1952 Aston Martin DB2 Vantage Drophead Coupé. We have a simply fantastic and rare DB2 Vantage Drophead Coupé available. Of the just 98 Drophead Coupé’s produced only a few were supplied with the Vantage engine with its ‘Twin HV6 SU carburetors’. This particular car was supplied from new to its first owner, near Birmingham, on the 16th December 1952. From 1974 onwards a collector owned the car for the next 53 years, using it only sparingly. End 2014 saw the completion of the full mechanical overhaul and restoration. It has an ‘Aston Racing Green’ finish with Cognac leather interior trim and matching sand-coloured hood. The bodywork is in a particularly fine condition with correctly fitted body panels and a beautiful quality lacquer finish. Motoring is a flawless enjoyment thanks to the DB2’s perfect mechanics. This car comes with a good provenance with many invoices and the factory build-sheet. The car, chassis and engine number all correspond with the factory build-sheet. Given the fact that a Drophead Coupé is as rare as a hens tooth, finding one in this splendid condition is truly special! This is British automotive history par excellence!
