According to copies of Aston Martin’s factory build records, this rare and elegant V8 Volante was hand-built at Aston Martin’s Newport Pagnell plant at the tail end of 1976 and delivered in January of 1977. The car was equipped with a left-hand-drive steering arrangement for the United States market and specified with the rare and desirable 5-speed ZF manual transmission. It was finished in Tudor Green Metallic over a Natural colored leather interior, Woburn Sand carpeting and a Natural headliner.

Its first owner was not recorded. A decade after being delivered, the Aston was in the garage of Ms. Margot Burrell of Dallas, Texas. Retained for three years, it would go to its next long-term owner, Arne Osborg in Dusseldorf, Germany. Mr. Osborg would retain the car for the next 21 years, regularly maintaining it as evidenced by records on file. At some point, the V8 was professionally repainted Red. The previous owner, a renowned collector, acquired the car in June of 2011.

We recently acquired the car from the collection and had the car inspected and serviced at our renowned marque specialists here in Los Angeles, CA in April 2024 at a cost of over $11K which included: A full tune up including new clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder & hose, new brake servo, new vacuum pump, rebuilt carbs, rebuilt steering rack, new plugs and filters, included rebuilding the alternator, cleaning the distributor cap, and replacing the battery. The car will be sold including its original spare wheel and factory tools.
