what car manuels do you recommend
what car manuels do you recommend? thanks
I used to look forward to cartoons on Saturday morning when I was a kid. Now it's Legit Street Cars.
Thanks Mike! Enjoy!
EXACTLY!
I know right!!!
I feel that rush of excitement when I see a new video for lsc. One of my favorite channels real quick.
Me Too. he is awesome
Vince! A Master Craftsman indeed! Just look at the attention to detail and skills! Two thumbs up!
Blows my mind he was even thinking of the "crashability" if it is ever wrecked again.
Great job Vince
And no care for his eyesight!
As a concrete worker I just appreciate a hard working man as Vince.
Body work is truly an art form. It’s like watching a sculptor make a statue. Real craftsmanship.
well stated, i agree
I think it's harder than making a statue, because you must replicate someone else's shape rather than whatever is in your mind.
@@questioner1596 agreed. It is harder.
This guy Vince is a master in his craft.
Seriously impressive
Vince's skills are memorising watching him shape and weld these patches was a joy, great video
And welding with no eye protection!
Very chatty too
..mesmerising; but I agree, nonetheless.
Vince really needs to use a welding helmet too, as what he's doing will make him go blind ('giggity'!!).
@@astonman4 if you notice everytime he’s welding he either blocked it with his hand or closes his eyes. He knows what he’s doing.
Real old school panel beating, that.
Kudos to Vince and everyone else at Ohare Autobody for putting all that work into a giveaway car. A+ guys!
Without a doubt, for me, the dude performing the paint application was an artist. So well applied with smooth and unbroken strokes. Mesmerizing to watch over and over and over…
Alex could explain paint drying in real time and I'd still kick back with a coffee and joint and watch the whole video
Facts 😂
This video restores my faith in body shops. It’s so hard to find a good body man/woman who doesn’t hack everything up !!
I'm pretty sure they would all go this good if you were able to film their work
It's often difficult to do the best job you can when insurance companies dictate what you're paid, one of the few trades that is heavily run by the ins. Industry. Body shop labor rate is less than half that of most mechanical shops.
This job was “technically” a hack job. Good job non the less tho. Like the old saying goes… cave it and pave it
That’s beyond clean from what it was looking like before
How are you verified
@@eter4783 they got 140k subs somehow
How?
Looking great now and cant wait to see it finished.
Nice to see you here
Good to see you here Zollo, I hope you day you also start reviewing cars.
I've been a fan of your channel from almost the beginning. But I must say since you've gone full send as a you tube channel it's gotten a lot better. This lexus series is so much more interesting than just the usual. You have definitely been really working on the content and it's showing. Thanks for bringing us some phenomenal original content.stsy safe and be proud of what you are doing.
Vince with Skills like a Surgeon
He's a beast!
I feel like a good hepa dust collector could really improve vince's quality of life
Really amazing body work - shows a profound quality difference when the people take the time to do it right.
I can't say enough good things about Vince and his attention to detail. Such a passion for doing it RIGHT. Kudos.
Vince, the man of few words. Lol. Great craftsmanship 💪 Nice to see guys taking pride in their work!
We call that pole with the chain on it a "Pogo stick" it is a very handy tool if you do body repair. I wish the painters did that much work behind me when I was a body man.
All respect to Vince -- that is hand made skill, really well done!
I love how Alex cuts absolutely no corners with his restorations and isn't afraid to spend money. *puts German metal on* "This is now a Toyota part"
Amazing work. So glad that you’re bringing people from the trade to help others. Thank you so much 😊
Body work done right!
always when I see videos of car painting, I want to learn it. So satisfying. You can see the result of what you have done.
Very cool project. Glad it’s getting finished and it’s gonna be a great ride for someone deserving. Well done Alex.
Thanks TJ!
Look forward to all the uploads. This is a great transformations and build. It's also a nice touch that u show autobody work. Awesome job Alex.
How is it possible that there are any thumbs down? You're videos are always thumbs up.
SUPER Clean now!
My favorite video of the Lexus!!! Click and subscribe this man is awesome!
How the fuck did you watch the video already.
No better way to start out my Saturday than watching Legit Street Cars!
Project Lexus is looking amazing 🙌🏽. The recipient BETTER take care of it. Can't wait to see the finished product.
O'Hare are true craftsmen. I don't know them from Adam but watching Vince work was like watching a master sculptor. But the amazing thing was everyone who touched the car took as much pride in their work as the master. Truly admirable.
I love this channel, so many tricks of the trade to learn from.
Looking good, keep up the good work Alex!!
This is the best project car so far on the LSC channel. The Lexus IS thanking you for your restoration hard work bringing it back to former glory!
Big thanks to Vince. Great commentary and an excellent example of real craftsmanship. Would like to see more with him. Thanks for sharing!
Can’t wait to see the finished product! It looks amazing so far!
What a transformation this Lexus has taken till this point! It’s a whole different car now if you ask me! Great job to Alex and everyone else who is doing their part in making this car look like what it’s supposed to!
Enjoyed watching Vince and Jordan do their magic. Amazing how much work to fix a 6 inch section like it was never there!
People who complain about how much body repairs cost should watch this so they understand the magic those guys weave and the finesse in the spray booth, so worth their money when they do that good a job
It looks so nice compared to what it looked before!
Just like everyone else I'm really surprised with the skills Vince has !
Automotive metalwork is total wizardry
That light adjustment at the end really shows the class and quality of the bodyshop

Really love Lexus vehicles but we were never able to own one. My father loves them. Hopefully 🙏 we can get this.
Alex, u should come as a guest in one of the next car trek.
Definately Lexus IS250 in next few year
I drive a 2009 Lexus RX450h
It is as perfect as it can be with its 170000 miles.
Still on original hybrid battery too.
I got a 2006 lexus gs300
Alex, do you know what kind of wheel the body guy was using to grind off the paint/rust? (Purple wheel he used first)
I'm not sure but I'll ask him
It's a 3M Clean & Strip wheel, They're super useful
That is THE smoothest body worker I've ever seen.
That guy's good.
I don't know anything about working on cars but that guy Vince and his painters seem legit. Looks great
I’m surprised nobody is getting upset about the no helmet factor
Well from what I saw everytime he was welding he either blocked it with his hand or closed his eyes.
This video was so satisfying. It’s like taking a shower after being out in the sun all day. Best automotive channel on CZcams. 👌🏽
A lot of channels on YT do body work but Vince is the real deal. Great content. Moar please.
What a joy watching pros do their job, art work, artists
Vince clearly has a great deal of skill and experience but, as someone who has very little welding experience, it makes me very uncomfortable that he isn't wearing a welding mask.
It was such a tiny amount of welding he did. And he was shielding it with his hand lol.
@@juanc5149 Mig welding is very bad for your eyes, doesn't work just to shield with your hand or close your eyes... It can be a major pain in the butt using the helmet but very necessary.
@@juanc5149 it was but serious harm doesn't take long. I personally wouldn't want to trust my eyesight to eyelids and hands for protection.
Yeah, everyone praising Vince and he did do a good job! However, grinding and sanding all that paint without a respirator won't take him too far... Even a covid mask would have helped in this case.
As well as welding and painting without any eye protection. Just use all the protection all the time.
Great work!!!!Kudos to Jake and team for donating there time, to help someone in need!!!
Alex, dude!! Thanks for taking us through this process and with details. Love how this Lexus IS is turning out. Whoever gets this car is going to be one lucky individual. Great stuff and can’t wait to see how the wheels turnout!!!
This is slowly becoming my favorite automotive channel. No matter what car Alex gets, it’s interesting!
I always watch the entire video like it’s a cable show. Thnx Alex 👊🏼👍🏼
My car had the same issue for 3 months and no one could figure it out…. I was watching garage sale videos and your video popped up when you picked it up and I decided to watch! NOW I HAVE THE FIX FOR MY CAR BECAUSE OF YOU!!!!!!!!! AMAZING… WHAT ARE THE ODDS
Really satisfying to watch. Thanks!
Vince is a true craftsman. Watching the attention to detail in the panel graft and prep work was really satisfying. I knew an old body guy at a previous job and overheard heard him telling an apprentice, “Just about anyone can do body work…. Not many care to do it right” and I think that applies here perfectly!
Beautiful job! Love it!
Amazing craftsmanship! Looking great!
Great work done by Vince!
Looks great. Can't wait to see it detailed
O'Hare Auto Body ALWAYS treated me well. It's great to see why! Great job, O'Hare Auto Body!!
Vince does impressive work. Love your videos Alex. Keep up the great work!!
That is excellent body work, prep and paintwork. Thanks for sharing.
Always quality work done!! Keep up the excellent job 👏
Vince is a true artist and craftsman. Absolutely wonderful watching someone do apparently effortless and totally fantastic work. I wish I was as good at anything as he is at that! I particularly loved the core support pull to fix the headlight fit 🥰
Brilliant workmanship !!
Beautiful work done
Very rare you see awesome craftsmanship! Thank you for sharing!!!
This video was so satisfying! Great job.
Geez - That clearly wasn’t Vince’s first day with a grinder and cutting wheel. The man has some skills.
Vince and the rest of these prep and paint guys…. Great craftsmanship 👍👍👍
Watching those guys work is awesome, experts doing their thing, it's like magic. Bloody good job guys.
It must be such a good feeling to have your own shop like this
The body shop isn't mine.
This will be a good car for somebody in needed. You put a lot of efforts to get this IS 250 into shape.
The quality work done fixing this car should definitely bring in more business to this body shop. Chicago definitely has a great body shop there. Consider putting up on your garage walls something advertising these places you brag about. People put up Advance, Oreilly, Motul and other companies names in their shops. Your shop can have the legit places for repairs you trust and tell people to visit. That would be awesome to see.
Loved this transformation
Thumbs up Alex
Waiting for the detailing video.
Big thumbs up Alex . Really enjoyed learning about auto body repairs . Incredible
Job done .
Great work. Can’t wait to see the detail video
One of the best car videos ever. Your respect for the trade is evident in this video. These guys are gems as filming is a PIA while working. Great
Brilliant workmanship!
Always great to see Professional body guys at work. They nailed it!
Wow. Amazing work.
What a quality shop......Vince and the other two gentlemen are artists! Kudos!
I never seen anyone cuts parts and welds like this guy. It's beyond perfection. A work of art.
Please share his channel if he has one.
So satisfying to watch
Wow. This whole video was AMAZING. Makes we want to go back to school for auto body. Also can't wait for the next video. I'm genuinely excited to see the interior transformation. I hope to learn alot so I can restore my interior on my 99 Monty Carlo
I really appreciate a good auto body guy like this, it is such an art.
Gotta love all these people finding "Free" cars. Where were these free cars back when I was a kid in desperate need of a car?!
Loving this content! IMO the most technical/practical YT car channel out there by far
Love this project and this kinds of videos.
Looks amazing...I’ve never thought about this model too much....& now the new IS500 is out....super cool!
Vince doesn't say much. I all goes into his art. Most folks don't know what goes into repairing it properly. Kudos to Vince.
Looking great can’t wait for the final video
We need to start a New Jean's Fund for Vince. That guy is a great body work guy who could use a leg up! I'd be glad to make the first donation!
