I own an LS430, and i plan to keep it until the wheels fall off. So my vote is yes, keep up with the LS430 content.

[@southerncharity7928]

Considering this LS has 600000 miles and the wheels have been abused yet still immaculate, the sun will be a cinder before then.

[@myz06rocks]

the quality, content and genuine nature of this channel is unrivalled. I don't even own a Toyota and enjoy this channel immensely. No click bait, no gimmicks, no over the top BS - those other content creators know who they are. Keep up the amazing work.

[@walmartdog1142]

Like watching a movie with lots of flashbacks. Also, that rooster crow thing; That was the first indication that you were not a Chicago native. Your mastery of the English language is extraordinary ! ! Your life story from war torn Iraq, to one of America's most respected and loved Toyota technicians, with over one million followers on KZbin is worthy of a book or even a movie.

[@wisamputrus6196]

Agree

[@stevec9669]

Very well said. 👍

[@fransb8543]

Here in the Netherlands everyone is glued to the TV for the soccer championship, but I'm settling down to watch this. Your LS content is one of my favourites on KZbin so please keep it coming!

The best time to take a walk, almost no-one is out. edit: Or even better, to take a drive around town.

[@perspicator5779]

Gorgeous! Toyota needs to give you some kind of award for all this restoration! Lets see the back-up camera install too!

[@bohan9957]

At this point, this LS 430 belongs in a museum.

[@ddk80]

She’s a beaut, AMD! She’s a beaut! I’d love to see the last remaining restoration process.

[@johnnixon7749]

Don't dream of selling it. It will outlast most other cars, and still be a great drive for many years. I've been driving LS430s for 16 years and my present one is 24 years old. European Spec. with air suspension and soft close doors. Wish I could make it across the Atlantic to your meet, have a great time with the enthusiasts. Thanks for the videos.

[@user-mz3jy3tw9h]

Continue the restoration videos! I’ve enjoyed every video you’ve made on this vehicle! 👏🏽

[@kirkadams9245]

the pearl iridescent looks so amazing on this vehicle! AMD, you've knocked it out of the park with this one.. just amazing! Jason and his team did a remarkable job also. Let's see the remainder of the fixes and a drive in the final product.

[@stephendibari5010]

I had a 2013 ES350 with this pearl paint. Amazing color

[@rossjohnson2478]

Ahmed, you are not “just a mechanic” you are the guiding light to all of us shade tree wrenchers.

[@dinobot_maximize]

i got a shade dungeon that has no ventilation and smells like garbage and sewage lol the bad part if one had a literal tree though is you dont want tree debris on your car either

[@rushmatic]

Of course I want to see all the work you put into this car!!! 😇 Hands down my favorite car on KZbin and I have learned so much for my own UCF30 LS430.

[@tabcreedence6553]

One of the best cars ever made. I have an 05. You did a fantastic job on this one

[@ONE_OF_300]

Yes film the work so literally everything is on video. Great stuff!

[@frankbiz]

First of all, you are an amazing person in too many ways to list. Great to see the amazing journey fixing up your beautiful Lexus. Wishing you all the happiness and success!

[@MitchellWeatherly]

Film the last steps! I need to have a library of content that will serve as a guide for anything I chose to do to my own "low mileage" LS430 (only 170K).

[@nicksgarage460]

This series has been one of my favourites. Great vids keep em coming 🔥👌🏾

[@genzigzag]

Amazing work from beginning to end. Testament to you and your teams skill and dedication and sadly a forgotten mindset by many including manufacturers of automobiles. This Lexus is incredible.

[@juliusjaranilla4561]

God bless you I enjoy watching your channel

[@daveyeves]

Love this. You need to take this car to 1 million miles now!

[@C-M-E]

Color correction is an interesting art, where you go Way beyond the color code and get into spectrography numbers to nearly match the molecular level of paint accuracy. There's but a handful of people in the US that go that far and the equipment is stupid expensive, but man, when you can match paint that hasn't been made in 40 years, it's worth it! As much as we all enjoy watching what you do, I'm sure you've got some fresh projects to reveal. 😉

[@jamram9924]

I remember Jason from Chicago Auto Pros doing the initial interior cleaning. Did Jason and Chicago part ways? Excellent job on this Lexus LS 430. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@jacksong6226]

Thanks to you my first car is an 03 LS430s I have been loving this thing!!!

[@craigcraigster4999]

As the original owner of a 2006 Mercury Metallic Custom Luxury LS430 with 21k rust-free Southern California desert miles on the clock, I want to first give a huge thank you to you AMD, your camera tech Jose, and your professional detailer Jason for this invaluable video series. PLEASE continue to share the additional updates to this amazing car with us, from springs/struts to front windshield, etc., so we can continue to learn, and enjoy, how repairs and maintenance on this best-ever Lexus are correctly performed. I just wish I was geographically closer to your shop, I would fully trust you with maintaining my "baby"! Thanks again, your channel is outstanding. 👍

This channel makes me feel better about my obsession with my truck. I’m a doctor and not a mechanic, but I’ve done every maintenance and repair needed on my 2000 tundra, including steering rack, LBJs, and radiator mostly because I don’t trust anyone else touching my truck.

Yes, we are still waiting for the formal debut of the second LS430.

[@larryscheuerman5396]

I vote for keeping the LS430 videos coming, as far as this car has come it would be a shame to miss seeing videos of the remaining few things left to be done to the LS430. I am beyond impressed with the care and quality of the LS430 video series so far, and honestly cant believe that is the same car that was at the start of this series. AMD your channel is amazing and all your work is beyond incredible in my opinion. I thank you for all the videos and your work is out of this world. This LS430 is all the proof anyone would need to see to know how well you can not only fix a vehicle but also how well you and your shop and employees can literally work miracles with some vehicles.

[@busso125]

Hi AMD, not sure if you saw what Jason was using to remove adhesive earlier on your video - but 3M makes a rubberized rotary wheel for that task. All the best to you, Jim

[@FrancePhil44]

you accomplished something absolutely amazing. I think you can wrap it up get to the conclusion. But congratulations for your work. a real pleasure to look at your videos

[@Shizzle700]

There is no substitute for true craftsmanship and experience. Its refreshing to see professionalism. Its becoming a lost art in a world of forgotten service and protocol. Most people will never understand or appreciate the talent and artistery it takes to make the end result look so refreshing. I applaud you and your team for an extraordinary job done well.

[@Dejavulife]

I have an Avalon 2007. Clean like this one the previous owner really took care of it. Even the engine bay is cleaner than new cars. The only damaged area is the hood in the form of rock chips.

[@Barbarapape]

Keep the LS videos coming, the back up camera install should be interesting. Soon you will have achieved all that you set out to do.

[@roymeyer6837]

I'd like to see the backup camera and steering shaft done in another video! It looks so great and I'd watch any video featuring this car! I wish I was in your area, I'd come to the meet with all 3 of our family Toyotas.

[@73caprice]

Yes I can’t get enough of this car. Just watching your calm , professional, fearless and respectful manner is therapeutic for me. Keep the videos coming. I have a 2017 LS460 and this is very relevant for me.

[@ghanimaldihani533]

Best mechanic ever, we need more LS 430 contents I have one and i am planning to have another one soon ❤

[@pixel_eyezd3805]

I’d love to see the process of changing the springs, struts, and steering.

[@charley95sheridan44]

He did so on the front of the car in the video of it just recently.

[@bbustin1747]

Used Krud Cutter to remove tint film adhesive on 4 windows before… it really cuts the adhesive… non toxic and no worries to damage interior parts, water based. Goo gone is petroleum based and prefer not to damage interior parts.

[@nelsyoung833]

I hope there will be long finale for this LS430 project. We all agree to continue the LS430 journey. We want to see more content on this LS. Great job! Zayn!!

[@nicogutierrez7537]

The car looks immaculate now! Great job on this! Would love to see you work on the springs too just to complete everything on the car. :)

Ty Sir..WHAT A TRANSFORMATION!!! WOW..It look s like you wne t back in time and walked into the Lexus dealership to view the new LS430..she is mint if not better than mint now. YES I vote for more adventures with your baby after this long and viewing hours of the work you have put into it I think show us the rest of the final work you do..and I may also suggest a nice long drive video when she is unleashed onto the road to cruise as she deserves with pure class dignity and style. Ty AMD it has been a beautiful journey to follow, right through all the of this I actually will miss seeing her so yes mate show us the rest and follow up videos as she ages gracefully but still as a beauty queen that she is now. And also what you managed to do to the door fold out storage you have not been able to source. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘❤❤❤❤

Yes please film the work. I’ll need to do rear bushings at some point so I’d love to see you do it. This has been my favorite car “build” series on KZbin. Owning the car and working on it as you release videos has been a blast. You convinced me to only put on factory parts and man has it been worth it. I didn’t realize how terrible oriellys highest level brakes felt on the front until I replaced them with OEM. So much better! I’d love to see as much of this car as you’re willing to show

[@ColonialDetailing]
