Buying a 1971 Aston Martin DB6 Convertible

The first DB6 Convertible was made in 1965, using the DB4 and DB5 short wheel chassis. In 1966, Aston started using a 3.75 inch-wider chassis for the Convertible model, which gave extra luggage room and rear seat space for the passengers. The bodywork was distinctive, with a slightly higher roofline than the Aston DB5, as well as the noticeably elegant split bumpers. The revised and improved aerodynamics, incorporating the Kammback tail rear end, gave greater high-speed stability to the DB6. In 1969, the Mk II version succeeded to the Mk I, featuring standard power steering and flared wheel arches to accommodate the DBS wider tires.

1971 Aston Martin DB6 Convertible Buyer’s Guide

This Grand Tourer was not only comfortable and luxurious, but also a very enjoyable driver’s vehicle, thanks to its brilliant Tadek Marek designed engine. The Mk II version was made available with an AE Brico electronic fuel-injection option, combined with a higher compression ratio cylinder head. As all Aston Martin vehicles, the Volante (Aston Martin vocabulary used to designate Convertible models) was also available with the Vantage engine. This upgrade enabled the DB6 to produce 325 hp (instead of 282 for the standard engine) and reach a maximum speed of 155 mph. When in search of a 1971 Aston Martin DB6 Convertible, one of the most important buyer’s tips is to be sure to check to body for rust.
