Aston Martin offering new engine parts for their classic cars

The new parts come with documentation certifying they are original, which is important for many owners.

According to a report, Aston Martin's Classic Car Department is offering new engine blocks, cylinder heads and transmissions for a variety of its vintage models. This includes the likes of the DB4, DB5, DB6 and a few select V8 models from the 1960s and 70s.

Reports state that the British car brand has developed new tooling to manufacture many of the parts to match the original specifications. The company has also worked with original suppliers to recreate parts like the transmission, which is supplied by ZF from Germany.

The new parts come with documentation certifying they are original, which is important for many owners trying to maintain the provenance of their models. Aston Martin itself is said to be running a provenance program since 2015 called Aston Martin Assured Provenance. Owners who drive their classic cars on a regular basis can also now easily get modern parts to replace the original, eliminating the risk of destroying them and affecting their resale value.
