Transcripts

00:00

how's it going guys my name is tarish

00:01

and I have a friend who made a really

00:03

dumb decision and his name is Matt

00:07

Armstrong you might know him for

00:08

rebuilding some pretty crazy cars in the

00:11

UK he recently bought a wrecked $700,000

00:14

Rolls-Royce Wraith previously owned by

00:16

some sneaker Enthusiast with the hopes

00:19

of rebuilding it but that wasn't the

00:21

dumb part in order to fix his wrecked

00:24

car Matt bought another perfectly

00:26

running Rolls-Royce Wraith to take parts

00:29

off and then and junk afterwards that's

00:32

right he was going to throw this car

00:34

away clearly I couldn't let such an

00:36

amazing car go to waste so I packed my

00:39

bags traveled across the ocean

00:42

determined to rebuild a Rolls-Royce that

00:44

was left for

00:46

dead I flew 5,000 Mi just for

00:51

this

00:53

oh this is good this this is good

01:00

[Music]

01:07

it is really large there's a lot of car

01:10

here it's like the length of a school

01:12

bus this is so insane now obviously it's

01:16

missing quite a lot but it's it's better

01:21

than I thought so this door uh this door

01:24

is missing and look how long it is I

01:27

mean you could you could like lay in

01:29

here here and man it there's so much

01:33

space in this car so this is a

01:35

four-seater layout and you can

01:37

definitely have two adults in the back

01:40

even though they probably won't have too

01:41

much Headroom but these doors are really

01:44

really cool because they open up this

01:45

way I think Rolls-Royce calls them

01:47

Carriage doors and uh if you open them

01:50

up while you're driving then I think you

01:52

probably di so the doors are missing

01:55

which is no problem well only one door

01:57

is missing that door is there uh the

02:00

rocker panel we have oh boy okay so

02:04

there's a lot of uh stuff missing there

02:06

uh I think they replace a subframe cuz

02:08

that subframe is toast so subframe we

02:12

have uh all the suspension the brakes

02:15

the hubs okay so we'll have to get that

02:20

the front end we're missing we're

02:22

missing an eye over here uh but hey

02:26

there's a grill that's nice okay so this

02:28

is a BMW engine which I definitely love

02:32

I love BMWs I love working on them

02:34

they're so so nice I mean everything

02:37

just look at the layout here everything

02:39

is straightforward you can see where

02:41

everything is it's easy to get to and

02:43

everything I just said is a complete Li

02:45

this is probably one of the most

02:47

complicated engines you can have uh this

02:50

is a V12 with twin turbos and if you can

02:54

tell me what anything is here then uh

02:56

leave it in the comments I don't know

02:58

what any of this does I assume this the

02:59

the intake manifold you have

03:01

intercoolers here you have a direct

03:03

injection system the spark plugs are

03:05

somewhere deep in there underneath these

03:06

airboxes so let's assume that this car

03:09

doesn't need any work because I don't

03:12

really feel like giving it a service uh

03:15

but as far as I can tell Matt said that

03:17

this car was tip toop it ran well and it

03:22

really and you know it pains me to say

03:24

because I think you shouldn't need to

03:28

buy a

03:30

car like this just to take it apart I

03:33

feel like you can definitely get all the

03:34

parts they're made here it should be

03:37

impossible for you not to find parts for

03:39

a car that's made in the country that

03:41

you're building it in check this

03:43

out

03:45

oh that's so luxurious this interior

03:49

looks fantastic it's black on red which

03:52

is the color of luxury and it has piano

03:57

black accents and it's really

04:00

quite in good shape now I think it's

04:02

like 50,000 Mi on this car and there is

04:06

a little bit of wear and tear on here

04:08

but to be honest this is not our biggest

04:11

concern right now I think this with some

04:13

leather cleaner and some tidying up

04:16

could be like it this thing would look

04:18

brand brand new oh look at

04:25

that ladies and gentlemen I have arrived

04:29

this is the part of the video where you

04:30

realize that tovaris does not know how

04:31

to use a umbrella you have to pull it

04:35

and

04:36

then oh

04:38

dude look at this this is there's holes

04:43

in it hold on can you see the holes

04:46

right here

04:48

look Matt put holes in my umbrella so I

04:51

couldn't use it it's supposed to Shield

04:53

rain from going down on your head and it

04:56

doesn't do that so I think they put on

04:58

some like BM W7 series subframe I know

05:01

they had to take apart the subframes the

05:03

jury's out on whether all the bolts are

05:05

underneath the car uh because I know

05:06

that they didn't really care about this

05:08

car but I care about this car so we're

05:10

going to make sure all the bolts are

05:12

back a lot of room for activities in

05:14

here this is uh well the trunk section I

05:17

know that they had some issue with this

05:21

especially these guys so these are the

05:23

trunk I guess struts and it looks like

05:25

they have coilovers like they're almost

05:27

like adjustable coilovers here um

05:29

there's probably a lot of spring tension

05:31

in here and uh when we have to put a

05:34

trunk back that's going to be a lot of

05:37

fun uh especially because I'm just here

05:40

by myself well I'm here with Tommy uh

05:42

the cameraman and uh that's pretty much

05:45

by yourself it's no well you know what

05:47

like we're going to we're going to do it

05:48

because this is Rolls-Royce I have never

05:52

had a car this luxurious like I've had

05:55

s-classes before this is the next step

05:58

up I am super excited excited because

06:00

like I have never thought I'd be a

06:03

Rolls-Royce person but here I am so high

06:06

school guidance councelor uh said I

06:08

would never amount to anything look at

06:11

me now

06:12

huh huh yeah yeah this bet bet you bet

06:16

you feel real dumb bet you feel real

06:18

stupid that's a pretty beefy

06:20

exhaust so I know this is probably going

06:23

to be quite light oh all right all right

06:26

so that's that's like a McLaren that is

06:29

okay that's

06:30

hey guys so I'm sitting in my new to me

06:33

Rolls-Royce Wraith and honestly unless

06:35

you're like me and rebuilding one that's

06:37

meant for the junkyard if you were to

06:40

06:41

06:45

you can see why it was well you you know

11:22

why it's it was worth it to get another

11:25

car to fix this one yeah it's quite a

11:28

lot I I can I imagine so is it really

11:30

that hard to to find Rolls-Royce Parts

11:33

it seems it it seems like this is where

11:36

they make them though it's it's like

11:37

going to America and be like oh yeah we

11:38

can't find Mustang parts yeah yeah it's

11:40

true actually but it's it is really

11:42

difficult to find I don't know why it's

11:44

so and when you do find them they're

11:46

extortionate they're so expensive and

11:48

you'll find as well a lot of the parts

11:50

which can come from a BMW and switch

11:53

over they're like 40% more expensive

11:55

from Rolls-Royce so okay sweet if you

11:56

get BMW parts it's always better but

11:59

cross reference him but everything on

12:01

this it should be like like similar to a

12:02

seven series but it seems like

12:04

everything on this car is just bigger

12:06

like by a little bit yeah yeah yeah yeah

12:08

that's it we already tried to cross

12:09

reference stuff and failed like I know

12:11

that you did the subframe or whatever

12:13

yeah the rear subframe was just like a

12:14

little bit short just a little bit

12:15

shorter yeah if I had a nickel for every

12:18

I don't know this is the good side oh

12:20

this is wow this is like this is a an

12:22

actual car look at that I'm here and we

12:25

have not a lot of time to do this uh so

12:28

I figure we can have a deadline for this

12:31

build now I know um shedfest is coming

12:33

up with auto Alex and I would like to

12:38

have Sue done for shedfest and that that

12:41

is in about how many weeks is that

12:43

that's in less than one

12:45

week okay I'll ring Men story now it

12:48

shouldn't be that hard it's not going to

12:50

have any Men story Parts it's all

12:51

Rolls-Royce it's fine let's Manor it's

12:54

so worth it but another thing I was I

12:57

was going to ask you about uh is is I

13:00

can't take this car home like I can't I

13:02

mean not this car but like I can't take

13:03

Sue home uh after we build it um because

13:07

of some stupid 25 year rule that I can't

13:10

take cool things to America um

13:14

but we should we should give that car

13:16

away cuz I know that you were talking

13:17

about that that's what yeah that was the

13:19

original plan with Sue Sue will be

13:22

resurrected she was sue the sacrifice

13:24

that's where her name come from so the

13:26

fact that now you are

13:30

bit late

13:34

reaction Sue is going to be resurrected

13:36

the new life for

13:40

Sue and I feel like it's only right it

13:43

should go to the viewers because really

13:46

it wasn't that was the end of a life but

13:48

to have a new life and then be able to

13:50

go back to the people that have watched

13:52

Su be sacrifice and then resurrected

13:53

again what a way to end it okay so not

13:56

only do I have to put a car together

13:57

that is uh that is completely taken

13:59

apart and uh we're kind of Unsure how

14:03

many parts we've taken off cuz I know

14:04

that you've taken off a lot of like

14:05

little little nickel and dime stuff yeah

14:07

we we were like we were considering

14:10

rebuilding Sue but now I'm glad that you

14:12

you doing it because I'm happy for it

14:14

but at the same time all the stuff that

14:15

we took off we know it's it's going to

14:17

be a nightmare to put back together yeah

14:19

so all I have to do is uh try to find

14:21

some very expensive very rare

14:24

Rolls-Royce Parts uh then put a car back

14:26

together in a matter of a few days and

14:28

uh while we're here why not modify it

14:30

we'll we'll probably modify it you know

14:32

make it a little bit

14:37

better oh oh and bang on the Rolls-Royce

14:41

we should make it sound like that we

14:43

should make it sound like that we need

14:45

mods yeah we need

14:47

improvements maybe color we are we

14:49

changing color I don't know I mean

14:51

listen I I just got here just got so we

14:54

can we can change color maybe some

14:56

wheels or whatever I think suggestions

14:58

in the comments suggestions in the

14:59

comments what this thing is going to

15:01

look like and what this thing is going

15:02

to perform like I don't even know how

15:03

much they make I know they have a V12

15:05

twin turbo how much horsepower do they

15:07

make do like 600 something I think

15:09

there's about 600 or something I think

15:10

on this one it's been tuned and it's 750

15:13

so like and it's like a th000 new me of

15:16

torque so I think if we can tune Sue as

15:18

well that it'll probably get more power

15:20

than this cuz this is like a mansouri

15:22

tune so it's got to be like warranty and

15:24

that type of stuff so okay so there but

15:26

there will be no warranty on Sue um

15:29

because we're building this in in a

15:31

matter of like 5 days so uh but we have

15:33

to make it so it is safe for people uh

15:36

we have to make it so it's reliable and

15:38

does everything a Rolls-Royce should do

15:40

uh so I got to get to work let's oh and

15:43

the best thing about Sue as well it's

15:45

also completely clean title wow yeah no

15:48

damage no accident nothing so that's wow

15:51

except for all the parts you took off

15:53

yeah is that yeah yeah it's okay yeah

15:56

except for except for it being a

15:57

complete shell okay we I got get to work

15:59

I got to get to

16:06

work I think I might be in trouble all

16:09

right so I have been in my hotel room

16:11

the entire day looking for parts and not

16:16

only is it super super hard to find

16:20

anything if I do find something it is

16:24

incredibly expensive let me show you

16:26

what I'm talking about so I'm on eBay

16:28

looking for for a Rolls-Royce WRA door

16:30

and check out these prices 6,500 bucks

16:34

with $500 shipping that's 7 Grand that

16:37

is only for the door skin has no door

16:41

handle no inner structure nothing this

16:46

also needs work it needs body work

16:49

there's scratches all over it and the

16:51

other listings aren't much better I

16:53

think I'm going to have to spend

16:54

somewhere like six grand just to get a

16:56

door that doesn't include anything else

16:59

the glass itself is like

17:01

$500 I mean look at this the the closing

17:05

assist for the door is $1,400 bucks and

17:08

all this stuff is in America weirdly

17:10

enough I can't find anything in the UK

17:13

and I certainly don't have time for it

17:15

that's not the door I want at all so

17:17

this is absolutely insane I mean the

17:19

subframes that I need for the car each

17:21

one is like $2,000 and that doesn't

17:23

include the suspension which is another

17:25

several several thousand so I have

17:27

bitten off more than I can

17:30

again but I do have maybe maybe a

17:33

solution so my friend Sam hard uh you

17:36

guys have probably seen him on the

17:37

channel or my second Channel he is a

17:40

really good friend of mine and he is

17:41

also a used C dealer and he told me that

17:45

maybe maybe if all else fails he may

17:48

have a solution for me but he also told

17:50

me that I need to keep an open mind

17:58

[Music]

18:14

hey

18:15

everyone so I did the thing that I said

18:17

I wouldn't

18:20

do I bought a parts

18:23

car it's really heavy

18:34

[Music]

18:39

welcome everyone to my new new

18:42

rollsroyce wraith now I know what you're

18:45

thinking I did make fun of Matt

18:47

Armstrong for doing exactly this but

18:50

this car is much different than the one

18:52

he bought because although this car does

18:56

look okay uh from I don't know know 10

18:59

20 ft back it's a little rough around

19:01

the edges actually it's a lot Rough

19:03

Around the Edges uh because as you can

19:05

tell this car doesn't drive it doesn't

19:08

start it doesn't run and that's because

19:12

this is one of my favorite types of cars

19:15

and that is flood damaged now Sam

19:19

definitely came through on this car

19:21

because I mean honestly I don't know

19:23

what I would have done um but this was

19:26

basically a pristine example until one

19:29

fateful day when this went into some

19:32

flood waters now this car looks really

19:34

really nice I actually do like the tan

19:37

there's a tan on wood there's silver

19:39

accents here and it's almost too nice

19:42

for me uh other than the fact that past

19:44

the seat cushion you can see that there

19:47

is some debris and that's because that's

19:49

where the flood waters were and that's

19:51

why nothing on the inside of this car

19:54

the electrics everything is dead and

19:57

unfortunately there's something

19:58

something else that's

20:01

dead and that's this thing right here

20:03

this V12 with twin turbos you can

20:06

actually see some of the corrosion right

20:08

here on the

20:09

aluminum this did not survive the flood

20:12

and that means that this is now a 2ton

20:15

paper weight but it also means that

20:17

since Sam hooked me up with this car I

20:20

got it at a really really good price so

20:24

I think this car has everything we're

20:26

going to need it has the same the same

20:29

body work oh that's a lot of scratches

20:31

it has the same color body workor that

20:33

Sue Has and I think we're going to need

20:35

to name this thing because we need to

20:37

refer to one car versus the other so

20:40

that's Sue this can be Sue to Electric

20:45

bugaloo that that's not very good is it

20:48

Tom what about scuba Susan scuba

20:51

Susan scuba Susan is good it doesn't

20:54

really roll off the tongue does it um

20:57

okay how about how about this it needs

20:58

to be like an English name right uh

21:00

let's do Agnes oh I like that yeah so

21:03

Agnes so Agnes means Lamb of God right

21:08

and uh this lamb is going to the

21:10

slaughter so now all we got to do is put

21:13

this thing into the shop and start

21:15

taking it apart bit by bit to make that

21:17

Rolls-Royce whole again and make this a

21:20

car that we can be proud of and

21:22

hopefully one person in the audience can

21:25

drive this home I just wanted to test

21:27

this out to see if it works apparently

21:29

if you try to grab this it'll it'll get

21:31

scared and and pop back

21:37

in yeah that still works but I could I

21:40

could still get to it I could still

21:47

oh okay well just going to just going to

21:50

leave that there just going to leave

21:51

that

21:55

there so for anybody wondering

21:59

this weighs like 5,300

22:02

lb and in European measurements it's

22:05

like 50,000 kilos so

22:13

yeah okay let's get it up in the

22:17

air even though The Wraith was a very

22:19

heavy Luxo barge it had easily

22:22

accessible pads on the side of the car

22:24

marking its lift points it's almost like

22:26

they knew these cars would be at the

22:28

service Center for extended periods of

22:30

time fun trick to avoid having to push

22:34

this entire car is you can actually just

22:37

roll the wheel and it'll roll everything

22:40

a lot smoother so if you just do this

22:43

look at that see way

22:46

[Music]

22:47

easier I raised the car in the air only

22:50

mildly concerned that it was severely

22:53

overloading the

22:57

lift after passing the shake test it was

23:00

safe for me to walk under the car at

23:02

which point I made some interesting

23:05

discoveries there's a lot of good and

23:08

some bad first thing is uh so I got this

23:11

little flashlight here they call it a

23:13

torch by the way a torch has fire in it

23:16

this is just a it's it's a light the

23:18

Mufflers have been deleted so we did a

23:21

muffler delet us here but you can see

23:24

that this has definitely been through

23:26

some sort of uh you know water incursion

23:29

cuz there's just look look at all that

23:31

that's good that's all that's good

23:34

that's a lot of a lot of dirt that

23:35

shouldn't be there so the sway bar here

23:38

has a hydraulic element to it and I

23:40

think that just goes in and out like

23:42

that but these lines are going to have

23:44

to come off that's going to be fun I

23:45

don't know how to bleed that I think the

23:47

car only had like 40 something thousand

23:49

miles on it when it was submerged engine

23:53

looks a little little bit on the

23:55

corroded side I mean you can see like in

23:58

the there there's some aluminum

24:00

corrosion very very similar to what we

24:02

saw in the P1 why are the brakes

24:04

green like I I I noticed so so it's

24:07

there's green brakes on the on the back

24:09

is this like cuz I don't think the rest

24:11

of them are green what do you think

24:13

Tommy it's a Too Fast Too Furious car it

24:15

is Too Fast Too Furious wait a minute

24:18

wait a minute what's uh what's the color

24:20

of Marcus rashford's team is it is it

24:23

green did Marcus rashford own this car

24:26

is this his other Rolls-Royce I'm going

24:28

to say that this is Marcus rashford's

24:30

car just so I can get uh 5 million views

24:31

now one thing I had to show you guys um

24:34

and maybe you guys know maybe you don't

24:37

uh this is the first time I've seen it

24:38

in action take a look at this center

24:43

cap oh that's so cool now we need to get

24:47

to work and we're going to take the

24:49

wheels off and then we're going to try

24:52

to find some tools because I don't know

24:53

where anything is in this shop and then

24:55

we're going to start from the back to

24:57

the front

24:59

and this should be F this should be easy

25:02

this should be really easy what do you

25:03

think Tommy you think we'll we'll be

25:04

done by the end of the day oh uh minimum

25:06

at least yeah yeah there should be there

25:08

should be no problem yeah what could go

25:11

[Music]

25:14

wrong I carefully removed the expensive

25:17

and fragile center

25:19

caps then took off the diamond cut

25:22

Wheels which as you can imagine weighed

25:25

more than most midsize sedans

25:29

[Music]

25:31

then I got to work deleting the muffler

25:34

delete removing the plastic under trays

25:37

and the rest of the rapidly rusting

25:40

[Music]

25:44

exhaust and that's when I got slapped in

25:46

the face with some German

25:50

engineering it's two steps forward and

25:52

one step back uh in order for the

25:55

subframe to come out we actually have to

25:57

take

25:59

this entire thing out the uh the struts

26:01

which are air struts and that makes

26:03

things easier they're not hydraulic

26:05

which means that we don't have hydraulic

26:06

fluid uh that goes everywhere but the

26:08

air struts the top of the struts uh are

26:11

actually on the interior of the car

26:13

meaning that we have to now put the car

26:15

on the ground we have to put the wheels

26:16

and tires back on roll the car back a

26:19

few feet open the door take the rear of

26:22

the Interior part meaning that the uh

26:25

rear parcel shelf the seats um and the C

26:29

pillars uh just so we can get to those

26:31

three bolts take those three bolts out

26:33

then raise the car back up take the

26:35

wheels off and remove some hydraulic

26:38

lines brake lines electrical connections

26:41

and then four

26:42

bolts then should all come out you could

26:45

just jump in like climb in like Dukes a

26:47

hazard I could just jump in the problem

26:49

is the door see if this was a regular

26:52

door this could open up and I can do all

26:54

the work there there'll be no problem

26:55

here because it's an asymmetric lift it

26:57

was not meant for doors like this so if

27:00

you open this up there's no way I can

27:02

get inside uh cuz I'm a I'm a I'm a big

27:05

boy I'm not well it's a big car this car

27:07

is meant for me uh it's just not meant

27:09

for this country because yeah this is

27:12

like it's it's literally the size of a

27:14

school bus

27:20

[Music]

27:41

this is more or less what a normal door

27:44

how a normal door will open and this

27:49

goes this is It's like a whole another

27:51

car over here it's this is so insane

27:58

for a car that had such outstanding

28:00

interior quality it was easier than I

28:03

thought to disassemble the whole thing

28:06

the rear seats only took a few 13 mm

28:08

bolts and some T25 torque screws before

28:12

they could be taken out of the

28:14

car but then things got a bit more

28:19

complicated in order for me to get to

28:21

the parcel shelf and the strut bolts

28:23

underneath I had to remove the side

28:25

panels and the C pillar trim both of

28:28

which were super easy to

28:34

do once I got everything apart on both

28:36

sides I could finally do the thing I set

28:39

out to do a few hours

28:41

[Music]

28:46

ago with the interior work complete for

28:48

the most part I went underneath to take

28:51

the drive line apart but got a little

28:53

confused on how to describe it

29:01

we had this

29:03

conversation with the guys at dinner uh

29:07

this is in the states it's called a

29:09

drive shaft this this thing right here

29:12

uh and then that drive shaft goes to

29:14

differential and then that differential

29:16

goes to two axles or half shafts but

29:19

here they call this the prop shaft and

29:22

it doesn't make any sense for me I guess

29:24

it's an Antiquated term for a boat or an

29:26

airplane uh this

29:28

as much as its boatlike you know

29:30

appearance would uh would make you

29:33

believe this is not a boat though it's a

29:35

car uh so this is a drive shaft so I

29:39

don't yeah but here the drive shaft is

29:41

the axle they call that and they call

29:43

the axle the drive shaft yeah so it's

29:45

really confusing this doesn't yeah I

29:46

don't know I don't know when you be

29:47

careful when you order parts yeah be

29:49

careful when you order parts also they

29:50

invented the English language and it

29:51

seems like they they they got it wrong

29:54

yeah they they absolutely got it wrong I

29:56

just lost all my UK audience please

29:58

don't unsubscribe I need you

30:01

[Music]

30:02

[Applause]

30:13

guys with the prop drive axle shaft

30:16

unbolted I took the wheels off again and

30:20

found more of the gift that keeps on

30:24

giving take a look at this does it

30:26

remind you of the P1 Tommy

30:29

oh no oh no

30:33

[Laughter]

30:36

dude except it's not sand here it's dirt

30:39

it's just like compacted mud everywhere

30:42

her name is Sandy but no no her name

30:45

would be

30:46

[Laughter]

30:48

dirty oh Agnes you dirty girl oh that's

30:52

here smell

30:55

that I took off the rear brake calipers

30:58

by spinning them around since the brake

30:59

lines were absolutely seized

31:10

solid then got to work taking off the

31:12

hydraulic lines for the sway

31:22

bars I then removed some bolts on the

31:24

subframe to make way for the large main

31:27

21 m mm bolts that would finally free

31:29

the subframe from the

31:31

car it was probably easier to lift the

31:34

car up than drop the entire subframe So

31:37

I placed a few jack stands on the ground

31:39

and let gravity do the work for

31:44

[Music]

31:45

me yeah looking

31:48

good uh looks like this side's sticking

31:53

go up a little bit more no it's staying

32:01

look at

32:02

that almost like we know what we're

32:04

doing hell

32:06

yeah all we have to do is uh do that

32:10

same thing to the

32:13

front and then swap the cars and then

32:16

put everything back and hopefully

32:18

everything works shouldn't be too hard

32:21

shouldn't be too hard peace cake peace

32:23

cake thanks

32:25

Angus thanks Angus

32:29

hello introduce yourself I'm Matt I'm uh

32:32

Matt Armstrong's cameraman and today

32:33

apparently I'm supposed to be helping

32:35

Freddy work on this and I have no

32:37

mechanical ability whatsoever so I don't

32:38

know why he's asked for my help did did

32:40

you even ask for my help or did I just

32:41

turn up you just turned up uh but uh I'm

32:44

really glad you did because you were

32:45

around when uh Matt took apart

32:48

everything well Matt and Tony took apart

32:50

everything and uh I don't know what I'm

32:53

doing I don't know what you guys took

32:54

off uh even though we did we did talk

32:57

about it but like it's just seeing it in

32:59

in the metal is is a lot different now

33:02

priority number one is now to move this

33:04

car it's on subframes from a BMW 7

33:08

Series 7 Series I think okay yeah uh and

33:11

those are not stock wheels no they are

33:14

they are stock with they're stock yeah

33:16

seven seers comes with those no no the

33:17

rolls Ro R oh okay okay yeah this was

33:21

the LX right the Rolls-Royce Wraith

33:23

LX in hindsight removing two of the

33:26

wraith's wheels

33:28

probably wasn't a great idea in terms of

33:30

Mobility it took all of the guys at

33:33

mallerie performance to move this car 2

33:35

and 1/2 ft but with the car finally on

33:38

the lift we turned our attention to the

33:40

car's large and very dented fuel

33:44

tank I figured we should work on both

33:46

cars at the same time so we don't forget

33:49

any steps in installation but that was

33:51

interrupted as we had a lovely surprise

33:54

guest my name is Sam I'm going to be the

33:56

host for the duration of the repair of

33:58

this Lamborghini it's actually a

34:00

Rolls-Royce just the wrong garage so

34:02

great news uh Sam from hard

34:04

up G Gage garage garage there garage you

34:10

have to say it like your friend garage

34:12

um so uh Sam from heart of garage has uh

34:15

come to try to help us take apart this

34:18

Rolls-Royce and rebuild that Rolls-Royce

34:20

and uh now we have all hands on deck

34:23

which uh should mean everything goes

34:24

faster except we're all just going to

34:26

stand around and talk for most of the

34:28

day uh so that means that we're just

34:30

going to probably take a break in 5

34:32

minutes and then uh we're going to get

34:33

tired and probably do this

34:35

tomorrow the plastic fuel tank was

34:38

remarkably old school it had some metal

34:40

straps at the bottom a handful of

34:42

electrical connections at the top and

34:44

two hoses at the

34:47

side after we took it out drained it and

34:51

clean the inside of any flood damage we

34:54

removed the very full tank that we had

34:56

just realized was way more valuable than

34:59

we

35:01

thought this is Marcus rashford's fuel

35:04

imagine if he doesn't put premium in his

35:05

Rolls-Royce we should test it I mean he

35:08

was only doing 30 mil an hour you

35:10

probably don't need premium that's true

35:11

we've got Marcus rashford's fluids we

35:13

should we should we should auction off

35:15

we should bottle 10 m we should bottle

35:18

it up bottle it up can you sell just

35:20

fuel on the market I don't see why I

35:23

mean it's a it's a cologne ah oh OD de

35:26

rashford yeah

35:30

o de

35:34

[Music]

35:35

Marcus with Sue in just the right

35:37

position to delete her ill-fitting

35:39

subframe we unbolted the three slapped

35:42

in bolts and raised the car to get ready

35:45

to install the right

35:51

parts hello look at that

35:56

hi that's not bad that's not too bad at

36:09

all hold on so this is for everybody

36:13

that that got in the comments and said I

36:15

said aluminium or aluminum you can say

36:18

it either way so if you're over here you

36:20

can say aluminium if you're in the stage

36:21

you say aluminum so it's like when

36:23

you're in Germany you say porsa yeah

36:25

whereas here you say Porsche yeah so if

36:27

you're in you say uh you know we were on

36:29

vacation and then if you're over here

36:31

they say the war you

36:32

36:37

Solutions in this

36:41

37:41

goodoo all right I don't think it's

37:43

lined up oh got into

37:45

it everybody put your but holes back in

37:48

[Music]

37:52

yep there is something incredibly

37:55

satisfying about mating a major

37:57

component of the car to the chassis and

38:00

this was no

38:01

[Music]

38:05

different after some wiggling and

38:07

finagling the subframe and rear

38:09

suspension went into to sue the

38:11

sacrifice like it was meant for

38:13

[Music]

38:18

it all right hopefully we're going to

38:21

bring the car up and the subframe goes

38:22

with it 3 2 1

38:25

go t look at that are we good yeah it's

38:30

going up

38:35

wo so we are uh now this makes us

38:40

officially rollsroyce Master tchs uh so

38:44

if anybody needs Rolls-Royce work uh

38:46

just hit up uh Matt right there cuz I

38:48

don't live here and I can't I can't

38:49

technically so technically I'm here uh

38:52

as a tourist I'm not supposed to be

38:54

working and these are not my work gloves

38:56

these are my tourist gloves that's why

38:59

that's why me and Sam are here to do all

39:00

the work and make him look like he's

39:01

working yeah yeah yeah yeah I mean it

39:04

it's also because I'm a YouTuber and I

39:05

don't I don't work so you

39:09

don't since this was a German car we use

39:12

the German standard of guten tight to do

39:15

up the bolts but just for a good measure

39:17

we used a torque wrench to check our

39:20

work we reused Sue's original break

39:23

rotors because they were loads better

39:25

than the ones on Agnes

39:30

the heat shields went on next followed

39:32

by the rear brake

39:34

calipers it was all looking great but we

39:37

still had quite a journey ahead of

39:39

us okay so this is what's going to

39:42

separate the men from the boys we now

39:44

have to take off the front subframe

39:46

because the front subframe on that car

39:49

was well that was from the rashford car

39:51

and uh we know what happened 30 m hour

39:52

that it destroys cars so uh what we'll

39:56

do take take off everything here then

39:59

see what what I mean what we have to do

40:02

I know that there's a lot of hydraulic

40:04

lines and hoses and all that stuff

40:07

steering rack uh has to come out uh the

40:10

engine has to be supported from the top

40:12

yeah so we have an engine hoist not like

40:14

an engine stand thing from the top uh so

40:16

we'll do that and then once it's

40:18

supported from the top then we can

40:21

disconnect everything and then basically

40:23

do the same thing as we did in the rear

40:25

except this is going to be way more

40:26

complicated and the good thing about

40:28

this one is everything is on this bolted

40:30

to the subframe so hopefully we'll be

40:32

able to leave all our anti roll bars or

40:34

what do you call these s s bars sway

40:36

bars they're they're an anti sway bars

40:38

anti-roll bars uh you should be to leave

40:40

it all in place the legs everything

40:42

untact right yeah we should uh and then

40:45

we might just have to disconnect it from

40:47

so this is a this like a double Wishbone

40:49

suspension and then uh we'll lower

40:51

everything down and it's going to weigh

40:53

a million tons and then that's okay

40:56

because

40:59

we got guns cuz we got we got guns we I

41:01

brought you know you guys don't have

41:02

guns here but I brought them I brought

41:04

them look at the H I'm tired we have

41:07

graciously been given uh this lift by

41:11

mallerie performance um so thank you

41:14

thank you thank you so much if anybody

41:16

wants they're cartooned or worked on

41:18

they are fantastic they're in leester uh

41:20

if you're in the UK but um they they

41:23

can't give us this for forever uh so we

41:26

do only have like a day uh so we've

41:29

gotten a lot of progress done the rear

41:31

end of the car is is done to make that

41:33

car roll uh we just need to get this off

41:36

and then uh I did buy some dollies

41:38

hopefully they'll be here by tomorrow so

41:40

we can actually take this car off and

41:41

then like put it in the dumpster we bin

41:44

wheelie wheelie bin yeah the wheelie bin

41:46

um so we can take this dumpster fire

41:47

into an actual

41:48

dumpster let's begin let's do

41:53

it we need a gun this is going to take

41:56

forever

42:01

not only does the front subframe house

42:03

the steering hydraulic and cooling

42:05

components of the car but the engine

42:08

sits on it making this job extra

42:11

[Music]

42:14

tricky to make sure the engine and

42:16

transmission don't literally fall out of

42:18

the car we attached a support bar across

42:21

the top of the

42:22

engine and with the engine securely in

42:25

place we remove the weird green

42:30

brakes the engine

42:34

mounts and took out two of the six

42:37

subframe bolts to make everything easier

42:40

to unbolt on the

42:42

[Music]

42:45

ground and with the suspension steering

42:49

and last annoying hydraulic hoses

42:51

disconnected it was the Moment of Truth

42:55

okay we're good uh

42:58

um I think about the other

43:01

side

43:03

woo look at that would you look at that

43:07

hell

43:11

[Music]

43:14

yeah okay that wasn't that hard that

43:17

really wasn't that hard all right now we

43:19

have to do that all over again who's up

43:21

for round two

43:24

[Music]

43:33

installation was reverse of removal

43:35

except for the fact that we had to

43:36

remove a bracket for the engine mount

43:39

because rashford's 30 mph accident

43:41

revealed some more hidden

43:46

damage we got some more dudes together

43:48

to carry the subframe over and just like

43:50

last time we lowered the car into place

43:53

and shimmy the subframe until it lined

43:55

up and didn't pinch anything too

44:00

badly Sam has elected to be under the

44:03

car while we are lowering it down uh

44:05

that is his choice do not try this at

44:07

home we are professionals I'm not a

44:09

professional that's why I'm not under

44:10

the car never do this never it's just a

44:13

bad idea don't do this the reason why

44:15

he's under there is because he's trying

44:17

to align the steering shaft uh so I'm

44:19

going to use this very precariously and

44:25

Dage okay I again

44:29

all

44:30

right another wrch another wrench yeah

44:40

okay okay that's it's in

44:43

the keyway so that's I'm happy with that

44:47

we can play with that in a minute I've

44:48

got it like a centimeter in okay when

44:50

it's completely leveled out we'll be

44:51

able to get the rest in so that's fine

44:53

okay sweet all right now we need to

44:57

than you

44:58

done come on man come on we never leave

45:01

Man Behind come on going to be okay

45:04

okay oh this is absolutely fantastic go

45:08

again and

45:10

again

45:13

right we're locked you know what's about

45:15

to happen right we're going to have

45:17

lunch oh oh no it's going to go all the

45:19

way up we're going to go all the way the

45:22

Jack standand should stay down and the K

45:24

got you ready 3 2 1

45:33

sorry

45:36

dude pretty good at this you know torque

45:39

up these bolts and then uh start

45:43

tightening

45:44

everything put wheels on I mean we we

45:47

got to bleed the brakes put brakes on

45:48

calipers brake lines and then we can

45:51

sensors and we see if it starts yeah we

45:53

can see if it starts and rolls Roy this

45:55

is awesome rolls Roy

45:58

only here for one day guys thanks for

46:00

[Music]

46:03

watching

46:10

okay and this marked the home stretch

46:13

the culmination of what was a pretty

46:15

eventful few days of wrenching but we

46:17

were only on the mechanical portion of

46:19

the

46:23

build I still had no idea if there were

46:26

any issu issues with the car's

46:27

complicated electronics that would turn

46:29

this 2ton barge into a 2ton paper weight

46:33

so we had to find out if the car

46:36

ran right now we have the coolant no

46:39

there's no coolant in the

46:41

system oh stuff is stuff is doing stuff

46:45

I'm going to T it up just in case we got

46:47

to whip it off right okay uh here's the

46:50

problem getting in the

46:52

car getting in the car is going to be an

46:54

issue what I'm going to do is from this

46:57

side I'm going to straddle the center

46:59

console and then press the brake and

47:02

then press

47:03

the start button look how he's just

47:06

straddled the center console

47:10

okay oh is anything pissing out at

47:14

the

47:16

um no quick go go go go go go I'm going

47:18

to say no but carry on let's go okay all

47:21

right and

47:23

[Music]

47:28

yeah yes yes yes yes

47:32

W

47:34

dude look at a Starlight headliner I bet

47:37

you could put 20p coin on the engine I

47:40

bet you get a hole in the middle

47:42

apparently man that's amazing I have a

47:44

lot of I have a lot of stuff that's uh

47:47

broken here

47:50

sh what it sounds sounds sick oh yeah

47:54

have you got an exhaust on it or not uh

47:56

it has a muffler delete so

47:58

yes it sounds pretty good it sounds like

48:01

a like a tiger but not but like a tame

48:05

tiger yeah you know like if a tiger had

48:07

a sock in the

48:08

[Music]

48:12

mouth dude this is awesome so now the

48:15

car runs it didn't run before and all we

48:20

have to do all we have to do is uh put

48:22

everything back but dude Sam thank you

48:25

so much that was turn around was it yeah

48:28

that was fast we did like three hour

48:30

turnaround on the front front subframe

48:33

yeah uh so Sam uh actually he drove here

48:36

3 and 1 half hours uh so now he needs to

48:39

turn into a pumpkin and leave uh so

48:42

48:46

love you buddy love you D thank you this

48:49

48:51

good time to end the video uh because we

48:54

now have a running Rolls-Royce wraith we

48:57

have the brakes on we have the subframes

48:59

on and I I think now we just put the

49:04

wheels on uh we put all the interior

49:07

back put the front end rear end and then

49:09

we'll have like a running car but I

49:11

think in the next episode we'll do all

49:13

that and maybe even go on the

49:16
