See the Ringbrothers Octavia, a custom-fabricated 1971 Aston Martin DBS, from every angle.
The Ringbrothers Octavia is a muscular reimagining of a 1971 Aston Martin DBS by the Wisconsin-based restomod specialists, and the first vehicle they have revealed during Monterey Car Week.
Initially meant to be a simple restomod, the project spiraled into a fully rebuilt car, with only the power window switches remaining from the original car.
The original engine has been swapped out, replaced by a beefy supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 from Ford Performance.
The engine produces a healthy 805 horsepower, sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission.
The give the Aston Martin even more dramatic proportions, Ringbrothers stretched the wheelbase by three inches and widened the track by eight inches up front and ten inches at the rear.
The Octavia rides on bespoke three-piece HRE centerlock wheels and a set of four Fox RS SV coilovers.
The interior is decked out in rich tan leather with plenty of sleek-looking metal trim.
The name Octavia comes from the James Bond film Octopussy, one of several nods to the famous spy movie franchise throughout the car.
Another fun Bond reference is the engine dipstick handle, which has been fashioned into a martini glass with an olive.
The Octavia uses carbon fiber extensively, while much of the custom trim found in the cabin was 3D printed.
