Friends bought cheap Rolls-Royce to find surprise under hood

These YouTubers picked up the cheapest Rolls-Royce they could find and discovered something surprising underneath the hood.

Resurrected Garage picked up a 1971 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow for an impressive $1,500.

Having saved it from being crushed, they were hoping to get it back up to scratch.

But what they find upon closer inspection of the car took them all by surprise.

What was underneath the hood of this Rolls-Royce?

Considering that the Silver Shadow had been parked for around 20 years, it’s no wonder that it’s looking a little shabby.

There’s some greenery attached to the car’s front bumper and a good cleaning wouldn’t go amiss.

Resurrected Garage commented that they hoped to get it running so they could be ‘high-class white trash’.

‘White trash’ certainly isn’t a term many would associate with the Rolls-Royce brand, but ‘high-class’ certainly is.

The fastest Rolls-Royce ever made was recently debuted on the Instagram of billionaire Reuben Singh.

With all that being said, what was lurking underneath the hood?

It was a squirrel’s nest – thankfully with no squirrel in sight.

As it stands, it appears the rodent left a little bit of a ‘mess’ in there, but it could have been a lot worse.

The mice that inhabited this Honda Acura NSX left a group of YouTubers gagging as they tried to work on the car.

Could this Silver Shadow be brought back to life?

Throughout the video, the team encounter several issues with the car.

The wiring in particular proves to be tricky.

Ultimately, they get some signs of life from the car but it doesn’t last for long.

It’ll take some more work to get this car road ready, that’s for sure.
