This 1961 Aston Martin DB4 had an unfortunate encounter about three years ago at an intersection in San Francisco. It sustained front body and suspension damage. The body is all aluminum. The vehicle came to White after it had been sold by the previous owner because he could not find a shop to repair the vehicle.

Kent White completed the repairs on the Aston Martin using the original damaged parts and no body filler. The body panels were painstakingly straightened by hand. This kind of repair may not be practical in a high-volume shop, but when the vehicle is rare and the parts don't exist anywhere else, it's this or nothing at all. Look for a photo of the restored vehicle as it appears today in the final installment of this series.
