Just thought id say. Thanks so much to Claire & Shaun from ASR Motor Body Engineering! They were a massive help in determining the size of the crank nut socket! And more recently for letting us see their amazing workshop. If you are looking for help or parts from an AM expert Shaun and Claire will find or make the part for you. www.asrmotorbodyengineering.co.uk/

This could cost you more than its worth
@AstonTorslanda
@AstonTorslanda 8 месяцев назад
You will find out, we will reveal the total cost when it's finished. But you are correct, it's always the way with classic cars. Main thing for me is, it will drive again and there aren't many 1972's left. Given the state of this one, I now know why. It's our time, the major parts are sheet metal, plus it's not going to a garage so that makes it a little more viable.
@rosewood1
@rosewood1 8 месяцев назад
These Aston's are fantastic but also bloody terrible. Give me a Ferrari 400 GT or 356 or even a 400i any day. Why? we all know Italian cars were built of rubbish steel. However. The body structure of the Ferrari is steel. If there is rust you will find it. There are lots of places to look. I owned one. But the Aston is a fraud. It has an outer shell of alloy sitting on top of structural steel that corrodes horribly everywhere. You need to be a very competent restorer to consider a poor Aston. Frankly I couldn't restore one. Simply too risky both in time and money. There are plenty of good Ferrari around. There is no such thing as an affordable Aston. I wish you well and admire your courage. All the best.
@AstonTorslanda
@AstonTorslanda 8 месяцев назад
Thanks for your kind words. It's a major job, I'll give you that.. I've been fixing old bangers (in my youth) and restoring classics on and off for 40 years. This is by far the rustiest car but only a close second to a 350SL Merc we tackled three years back. I don't know too much about Ferrari's as I could never afford one. The fact that the body comes off the DBS is a bonus to me. At least we can get to the rust easily once the body is off. No welding upside down with sparks going down your neck.. ;-) Thanks for watching, much appreciated..
@TheJensenInterceptor
@TheJensenInterceptor 8 месяцев назад
disconnecting heater matrix is normal as they leak and are very hard almost impossible to repair, plus removing AC is normal this is a pig to fix when it gets old and the AC rad blocks the air to the normal rad.

@AstonTorslanda

Most panels are available from a chap at ASR Motor Body Works, he hand makes them and was an apprentice at Aston working on these very cars in the 70's. His spares are surprisingly good value. The rest I will fabricate. I think as someone else suggested, things like windscreens and even screen seals are eye waveringly expensive and those odd little parts you never thought could ever be as expensive as they prove to be Thanks for watching..

@robertelliot9508 - All the body panels cost about £5K and then the sheet steel is under £200. A new windscreen cost me £270 from a contact in the trade. I will restore all the parts and prep the car for paint. Then a good quality paint job. So not that much apart from our time. It's our hobby, not a business, so that's not an issue. The car came with new bumpers and a rebuilt engine.

Truly one of the worst Astons ever made. It was designed for the American marketplace and therefore was cheaply made with little to no class.

I think the Lagonda that looks like a long flat Austin Princess holds that prize. Each to their own I guess. I would love an earlier or later DB but for the price.. Apologies to any Lagonda owners, I'm sure if I had one I wouldn't complain... 🙂

Lol. it's the worst I have tackled. As I said elsewhere, we restored a '71 R107 350SL a few years back. Very early one with a mix of pagoda and R107 parts. That was almost as bad. It's now running around but we had to replace virtually every thin plate on that car. The sills were not as bad but we still had to brace it everywhere to stop it folding. The bulkhead on the SL was gone, as was the boot, the floors, inner wings.. so we love a challenge.. You are right, the engine looks good. We will see once it's out how good it is..
