FIXING MY CRASHED ASTON MARTIN VANTAGE 

The man who never made a mistake , never made anything.

Matt Armstrong on a budget . I do like it though

Top tip, never throw away ANYTHING till you've completed the car. Even little broken bits, odd bits ect :) Throw it all in the boot, if you discover you need it woop, if you don't need it then woop haha. Completing the car knowing you've not thrown away anything needed is the better feeling ;)

I did the same thing when replacing the track rod ends on my Aston but realised in time and swapped it over. I did talk to an Aston specialist about why the insert comes out with the track rod end. Apparently it's very common and they recommend loctite when reinstalling, which I did. They can only be bought with the entire upright as it's an integral part but as other have said if you take the track rod end out of the other side with the insert getting an engineering workshop to turn one up on a lathe to the same specs should be pretty straightforward!

Absolutely awesome mate, great video and some good help from pals there

Keep up the great work Chris, I’m sure your luck will improve during this great build.

Brave man using a drill while letting his dreads dangle very close by 😨

Gj Chris! You are doing great! Keep the videos coming!

great progress mate a shame about that part for the track rod arm I think we have all been there and for that bar that's just taking the p*ss I'm sure you get it sorted 👍👍

We all do it, the moral, don’t throw anything away until finished!! Great stuff though👍👍👍👍👍

Keep up the great work bro!

Top content again here Chris, fair play mate.. we all make little mistakes, it’s finding and fixing them that’s the main thing! Keep it up 👏🏻

My favourite RU-vid channel ❤️

Great video so entertaining watching you restore the Aston, you should definitely consider upgrading the front grill while fixing it

Doing well on the views man keep it up 👍

Dreadlocks and a drill had me on the edge of my seat!

please lower the music volume. level them up. Great video.. just subscribed :)!

Lesson learnt don’t throw anything away till the build is completed

Mate couldn't you measure the widths of the other track rod insert, and use a normal nut that fits the thread turned on a lathe to the same widths? Just an Idea! Great video, looking forward to see it completed!

mate great video

mistakes means content, and good content at that.......keep up the good work

rather than trying to break the glue bond, heat it with a torch; the bonding adhesive will pop right off

How good is it having an “Aston” in the garage!

Are you and Matt going to do the TikTok car wash challenge together??

Never throw away any parts until the project is complete🙈

Well on the plus side, you have the passenger side airbag 😅

Not interested in a project like this unless it was years newer, everything was flawless and the motor was blown. However, you got really luck on that purchase. Lack the personal confidence to work on something I really care about if I know nothing about it. My Vantage would be my child.

Can't you tap the threads on that bar to the right size? It's typical, you chuck stuff then you need it the next day 😐 Another great video mate 👍🏻

Removing the dash could be tricky…

worst case with the spacer just remove the other one and give it to an engineer to knock up on a lathe

Waiting for 135i content

you and Matt both are doing a rebuild of an Aston Martin?

I thought he was mat Armstrong then😂😂

Looking on your hands you should maybe consider wearing some assembly gloves

I reckon you broke the ABS sensor from missing the track rod end

Why cant you tap out the insert

Is your hoodie a clue to the expensive parts that will transform the car?

Still not saying how much you paid for it then?

You said you was going to tell us what you payed for it in the last video ?

1080p quality just isn’t good anymore. Any possibility recording in 1440p. Just adds so much more clarity

Check the RU-vid of Matt Armstrong he is alsof busy with restoring a Aston Martin maybe he can help you with something.. he just get the complete dashboard out of the car and put it back in

Why did you use the name Chris slix?🤔

Where is the bmw content?

Check out Matt Armstrongs channel for help fixing a A.M.

Why the hideous music?

Wow are you Matt armstrongs brother you sound just like him you act like him you’ve filmed your videos like him or is it you just copied everything about him .it actually makes it hard to watch because I can’t help think you wanna be him

Try doing something original, not just copy someone else who is being successful. Poor show👎
