Assembly

From the paint shop the car went back to Woodgate's workshop for the final assembly.
This was a lengthy and painstaking process, not only the assembly itself but sourcing and remaking of the endless minor fittings and special parts. These included the correct Leart Torino lights, filler caps, button and lever door handles, interior handles, instruments, seats, switches etc.

"The car presented to us is one of the better examples of a "replica" DB4 GT Zagato we have seen"
Nigel Woodward, Manager, Aston Martin Works..

A new wiring loom was fitted with all new, but period, electrical components such as fuse boxes and relays.

All suspension and steering components were crack tested, parts such as the stub axles were automatically replaced with new items.

The braking system has all new components and the correct Girling brake callipers are sourced to give the car prodigious stopping power.

The 30 gallon fuel tank is foam filled for safety and an high performance Holly fuel pump fitted for reliability.

The dash has all original switches and instruments though a Stack rev counter is fitted for accuracy.
