Aston Martin AMV8 FINISHED PROJECT

Post pictures and stories about your cars both present and past. Also post up "blogs" on your restoration projects - the more pictures the better! Note: blog-type threads often get few replies, but are often read by many members, and provide interest and motivation to other enthusiasts so don't be disappointed if you don't get many replies.

Not sure about the previous poster's alarming self portrait there but that Aston is one beautiful bit of kit. :drool:
