This YouTuber received a totaled 2015 Rolls-Royce Ghost and is rebuilding it in a way that not many luxury cars get repaired.

That’s right, he’s repairing it instead of just swapping anything that got damaged.

Most Rolls-Royce owners wouldn’t mind spending the super-high costs that come with rebuilding using all-original parts.

However, this Ghost’s owner wanted it done cheaply, and they clearly found the right guy for the job.

Rebuilding a Rolls-Royce Ghost in a driveway

YouTuber Fix206 posted a video about rebuilding a client’s Rolls-Royce Ghost on his channel.

It wasn’t his first rodeo, and he had previously built another Ghost using parts from a Chevy Suburban SUV.

As for this Ghost, its owner found some used parts that were relatively cheaper than new ones, so he focused on getting everything else back in shape — quite literally.

You see, the luxury car was badly damaged from the front end and one side.

Everything from the quarter panels and doors to the front radiator mounts and support brackets was bent.

If it were a wooden Rolls like this homemade one, it wouldn’t have been a problem.

DIY solutions to avoid hefty costs

Most Rolls-Royce owners would send their car to a service center and receive it later, looking like new.

However, they also would get a massive bill and get disappointed.

This YouTuber avoided all that by fixing the damaged areas himself using some tools on his driveway.

He came up with ingenious custom solutions to measure everything and get all the bent metal back to its original form and place.

While we recommend watching the whole thing yourself, here’s what was the most interesting: the YouTuber had a custom tool he created to take precise measurements, and used a simple laser beam to level everything up.

Bringing bent metal back to shape is a tedious task, but he took his sweet time.

After a long and painful job, the car’s front end and side were back to normal without any signs of damage.

All that was left to make it look complete was to install the few replacement parts he received and then finish it off with paint.
