Baby Jane collectibles is selling Morrissey's Aston Martin!

ASTON MARTIN V8 V 8 1977 formerly owned by MORRISSEY

ASTON MARTIN! MORRISSEY! WHAT MORE CAN I SAY!

This is RARE CHANCE to own a car that turns heads around the world. A VINTAGE ASTON MARTIN V8 in FANTASTIC CONDITION inside and out! The power that you feel behind the wheel is only rivaled by the power that awaits you under the hood. Priviously owned by MORRISSEY, this American made BRITISH LEGEND fit him like a glove. It was has been garaged and well kept it's entire life and with only 51,000 miles on it... that life should continue for quite awhile.

The leather interior is in perfect condition. An air conditioner and CD system has been very discretely added. The engine roars to attention. Since MORRISSEY has been on tour for most of the past year he has not had it on the road. I am not a mechanic and it works well for me but I would advise a tune up just to keep things at their best. The exterior body is also in flawless condition save for a slight white scratch on the right passenger door and at the very edge of the right rear wheel well. This should rub out easily and cannot even be seen in the photos but I wanted to bring it to your attention.

This is the ULTIMATE PIECE for both CAR COLLECTORS or MORRISSEY FANS! Documented PROOF OF PRIOR OWNERSHIP will be provided to the winning bidder. I am located in Hollywood and will be showing the car on two days, this WEDNESDAY and FRIDAY. Please check with me for an appointment. This car is being sold with NO RESERVE and a VERY LOW MINIMUM of $25,000 however if you want to SEE IT IN PERSON, I insist that you arrive with $1,000 deposit to show me. I am not interested in holding your deposit but am only interested in SERIOUS BUYERS and this should not be an issue for anyone that is SERIOUS!

I bet he came out buying the Aston Martin instead.

                                                  The car has been in storage because he's been on tour, the pictures of the car are in front of his house in his driveway, but he doesn't own it?? "Formerly owned by Morrissey"? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I'm sure if he said I'm selling it for Morrissey he'd probably get more bids or a higher selling price.
