Bell Intercoolers made the Custom Oil Cooler for the V8 Vantage: https://bit.ly/3AHwo0x
After finding quite a bit more damage on the Aston as we work through its clutch issue, we find a better and more cost effective solution to our destroyed oil cooler. Also I have a key problem, my friend Alex from Legitstreetcars stops by, and the rooster doesn’t strop crowing through the entire video…

That’s a Ford key
Alex, you beauty!
Bro U can find the same lock key in Ford Focus 2000 – 2004
Fun fact about this key style, You could take your aston key and LOCK any Ford or Jaguar with the same key style. Cannot unlock though only lock 😂👌🏼
Damn! You are soooooo cheap! Buy a damn lift, it will help with filming as well, Ya' cheapskate! "Legit Street Cars" is totally professional! You, not so much. "Jus sayin…..
Put a rubber grommet in the hole and keep it moving.
Clutch bleeding trick for a make do pressure bleeder. A hand held oil pump can with the pump handle, some plastic tubing attached and a bic lighter to soften the small end to fit the bleed nipple tighter and pump fluid up by hand. Clutch bled. For a 20 year old replacement part sitting on a shelf for 20 years and has shrunken seals use a clutch fluid with a seal sweller built into it. Amazon has some special fluid for this purpose of swelling clutch seals.
The best term for a "smidge" without using that word is Skosh! I used that word when working at Redstone Arsenal with Rocket Engineers and they went APE, losing their minds! What kind of word is that? Where did that come from? Obviously they never worked on cars! Oh, that's right! Engineers don't work on their products or they would do it MUCH different!
I had a 1977 Jaguar XJ-S…and it had the same style key…if I remember correctly it's the same style as Toyota used. The Jaguar told dealer parts guy told me this. And you're right, they out source parts from everybody.
Is the passenger side lock not blanked out from the factory?
Get a lift, please
that’s a classic Ford key
“You have to jiggle the handle, jiggle it”
You’re only cool if you get the reference.
A smidgen = a wee bit
You really need a proper lift…. Getting anxious watching you guys crawling under a 2 tons car lifted using makeshift lifts.
Ford owned Aston for a while
Ford also used that style car key years ago
Can we get a review of that special huge oil cooler wrench? Looks pretty special…
Those Keys and barrels are used in Ford Falcons in Australia from 1990 to about 2008. They are a dime a dozen over here. Try ebay.
That key looks like a Ford mondeo and escort key totally crap and useless 🤣😂😅
Jaguar XJS has an oil cooler with big fittings too
A smidgeon is a “baw hair” in Scotland! 😜 (baw is slang for ball)
90s Ford key
Your videos are getting very amazing Sam. Congrats.
Get with Matt from offrheranch demolition ranch he can get you connected with the people that do car lifts….
What's with that weld piece under neath the engine cross member frame ??
a smidge…
In Australia we say a "bee's dick"
example : "Hey Alex, can you drop the jack a bee's dick please mate?"
Great video and a neat trick to get the spline shaft to align with the clutch👍
Volvo?? VOLVO?!?!?!?! Fuck that!!! That is a fucking Ford Fiesta key!
Jack stands are supposed to jiggle like that, who are these keyboard warriors that don't know what they heel they are talking about. Theres a lock pin in the teeth that can never come out while the weight of the car is on the stand. Unless the jack stand base is actually coming off the ground(never going to happen) then it's fine.
Please buy a lift or build a pit
Jesus Christ, Just say "Cunt Hair", we all know what you mean. LOL
Tibbe, the easiest key to get a code from simply by seeing it. There's only three wafer sizes, 1=No cut, 2=mid cut and 3=deep cut. 8 wafers in the lock reading from the shank end to the tip. 318k views at this point and almost any of them will be able to get a key cut from you actually showing the key in the video!
They also used to use those keys on a lot of different model Fords from the mid to late 90s in the UK and Europe. Namely, for example on the Mk 5 Ford Escorts, on Ford Mondeos… on Fiestas…. it’s really a very popular, old key design over here.
Love the collab with Alex!
Totally crazy that it was cheaper to have a US company reverse engineer the oil cooler and custom fabricate a replacement, than to buy the oem one.
Just get a fu****g lift
Those are Ford-Europe keys
Ford UK used those keys and lock cylinders. Had a 1996 Ford Mondeo with those keys. Ford UK used them for many years.
What happened to the underside of that car ? Look like its chopped and welded everywhere
Maybe just get a quickjack.
They range from 1500$ to 1800$ for a truck/suv one. It would bet a good fit and useful even if you got a full lift later on. Id still have a jack stand under it anyway for safety.
It's a standard Ford UK key and lock from the late 80's onward, when they owned Aston and Jaguar. I hope that helps.
The crusher is licking it's chops.
Ford falcons in Australia use the same key
that key is an old ford key
About 30 bucks for a universal clutch alignment tool go buy one
You only need one lock cylinder in case of emergency. Find a plug instead.
The key is an older style UK ford key
Standard Ford type key of the era, Used to use them on Transits and many other models?
I dont know why but every episode gets watched by me with interest here… Great stuff being able to see work of other professionals who source your parts – like with this oil cooler.
Like how you handle the comments regarding the lift and safety when you are working – all in all, learning a lot from you man.
Keep it up – you are doing great!
