    I've restored two of these earlier models, and watching you carefully polish the wonderful William Towne lines brought back great memories.
    I've prepped and polished until I know that shape in my sleep.
    Wasn't it fun to dive into the boot and remove the spare wheel?
    You chaps did a superb job and look to be very careful and have, forgive the pun, great attention to deatail.
    The only criticism that I see is that the tyres are too glossy. Remember, this is a 70s-80s period car, and Aston Martins are owned by gentlemen. Never had glossy tyres even when new.
    That back bumper gets plenty of exhaust soot, usually mixed with a bit of oil, as the valve seals are set a bit on the loose side to lube the valve train, so they're difficult to polish. Same with those sill covers.
    Well done!

      Thank you for sharing Thomas!! Glad you enjoyed the video and it brought back good memories :) I love to hear about others who have stories of their own with the cars we work on. yes, that spare wheel was a total pain 🤣🤦‍♂️ the gloss always looks *really* slick right after application, and tones down a bit after a few hours. Thank you for the feedback. Would love to hear more of the stories you have as you see other projects we’re working on. Thanks so much for contributing to our community

    Best car ever made, I fell in love with this car at the 1978 Motor Show in Birmingham N.E.C , I was 10 years old, my dad took me, I wanted him to buy one hahaha, house prices in the UK then were around 15k for a new 3 bedroom house the Aston Martin V8 Vantage was over 40k

    Personally I think those may just be _the_ most beautiful cars ever designed. Seen only a handful in my life and was always in awe. I think they simply blow away the newer ones. Can't imagine how much a detailing like that would be worth. Haha. Would be interesting to see how the undercarriage is done too. Amazing attention to detail. Wow. 👍👌

    My boss in the early 90's had one, he used it as a daily driver around Paris for years it was dinged up and scratched all round.
    Couple of years ago I saw it in a magazine, after a RS Williams restoration including 7.0L conversion. Went for silly money, I bet the new owner wont be laying down number 11's racing motorbikes off the lights in the early morning. 😂😂😂

      They are rarely for sale but if, they go for around 300 to 400k. There is actually also an even faster version of them called the Vantage X Pack. Super rare, only around 20 of them build as left hand drive and a couple more right hand drive. Most of them are sleeping in garages in the UAE and almost never see the light of day as an Aston Martin mechanic told me.
