Further Information
Aston Workshop are delighted to present for sale this Aston Martin V8, finished in Jubilee Silver over Blue leather. A charming example of the desirable 'Series 3' V8 (produced between 1973 and 1978), this 1977 car represents a perfect entry point into classic Aston Martin ownership. Series 3 cars featured Weber carburnation as opposed to the early fuel injection system that proved tricky to set up on the first V8s, making this a very usable car that is easier to keep in tune compared to the F.I. models. With the values of V8 seeing a steady rise over the previous few decades, and their usability being much improved over some other classic Astons, this Series 3 V8 would be a fantastic everyday usable car or the basis for a fantastic restoration and upgrade project.
Previous work carried out on this V8 include the conversion to later-type telescopic rear dampers, as well as the fitment of a new exhaust system and new brake calipers all round. As with the majority of V8s from this period, this is fitted with the automatic transmission which suits the cars comfortable grand tourer set up. Aston Workshop offer a 6-speed manual transmission upgrade utilising a modern Aston Martin manual gearbox, details of which can be found here.
Aston Workshop offer a number of subtle modern upgrades and enhancements for V8s, ranging from engine and gearbox upgrades to comfort enhancements such as improved sound deadening or reliability improvements including cooling system upgrades and a modern starter motor. Our popular Evolution 6.0 upgrade combines many of our enhancements along with an upgrade to 6.0L capacity with modern fuel injection. More information can be found here.
