Wishing a fond farewell to this hulk of an Aston Martin - The 1978 AM V8, not quite the Vantage, but this particular beauty was upgraded to match the spec, as well as converted to a 5 speed. It was a treat to drive, not because it was necessary good, but because it was so rewarding to get the shifts right and parade around acting like I’m half as cool as 007! Sold on Bring A Trailer for $81k, congratulations to the new owner! @lotuscarsvan @bringatrailer @weissachvan @astonmartinlagonda @astonmartinamericas ______________________________________ #lotusvancouver #weissachperformance #batauctions #restoration #astonmartin #astonmartinv8 #amv8 #britishmusclecar #jamesbond #007 #thelivingdaylights #yearinreview #automotivephotography #blakejphoto (at Lotus Vancouver) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrPBEHKA6eM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x2xif5ri3fre
