Selling A 1966 Aston Martin Volante

 

Derived from the Italian word for “flying”, the term Volante is used by Aston Martin to describe their Convertible models. The proper Aston Martin Volante though, refers to the model built between October 1965 and October 1966, based on the 37 remaining chassis of the no longer produced DB5. It featured a DB6-like body style (the DB6 Coupe was released in 1965). Aston Martin started to produce a Volante version of the DB6 (called the Aston Martin DB6 Volante), based on the longer chassis of the Coupe, once the 37 DB5 chassis were used. The first DB6 Convertible with the longer chassis was produced in October 1966 and was offered alongside the Coupe model. As Aston Martin dropped the superleggera construction technique used previously on the DB4 and DB5 chassis, the DB6 Volante used a more common fabrication chassis with steel and aluminum body panels. These are just a few of the characteristics that potential buyers will love to learn about your 1966 Aston Martin Volante.
