In this episode of Tavarish, we meet the daring Matt Armstrong, a man who made a questionable decision by purchasing a wrecked Rolls-Royce Wraith for a whopping $700,000. This luxurious vehicle, previously owned by a sneaker enthusiast, was destined for the junkyard until Matt stepped in with a bold plan to salvage it. To achieve this ambitious goal, Matt acquired another functioning Wraith to serve as a donor car for spare parts, a move that raised eyebrows and piqued curiosity.
As Tavarish embarks on a transatlantic journey to assist in the resurrection of this abandoned Rolls-Royce, he is met with the sheer magnitude of the task at hand. The car, missing a door but boasting a lavish interior with unique carriage doors, presents both challenges and opportunities for the intrepid team. With a complex BMW V12 engine under the hood, complete with twin turbos, the mechanical intricacies of this project are not for the faint of heart.
As the duo delves into the nitty-gritty details of the rebuild, they face a daunting reality: the exorbitant cost and scarcity of Rolls-Royce parts. Matt sheds light on the frustrating process of sourcing these components, hinting at the potential for using BMW parts as substitutes. Despite the setbacks, the team remains undeterred, discussing plans for modifications and enhancements to elevate the Wraith's performance and aesthetics. With Shedfest looming on the horizon as a deadline, the pressure is on to transform this dilapidated luxury car into a showstopper fit for a grand reveal.
