The DB7 Chronicles; restoration
Buying a 22 year old British Exotic Sportscar was certainly not without about a dozen little nagging things that need to be done. Fortunately, because that year had Aston Martin owned by Ford, and with Ford also owning Mazda and Jaguar, there are matching part numbers across those four lines. Amazingly enough, the door handles are from a Mazda 323, and where the Aston Martin door handles are $363 each, the Mazda ones are $54 each.
If everyone is interested, I can continue to share my journey through this, so please let me know in the comments – as well as any questions you may have.
Sincerely, Me
