Moldy Rolls Royce Phantom is GUTTED: Evaluating Interior Condition & The Long Road Ahead...

What happens here

The video shows the Rolls Royce's engine bay being given its first significant wash with a pressure washer. The engine bay is visibly dirty, with a clear watermark indicating the previous flood level on various components. The creator uses Torx bits and a Milwaukee power driver to remove the 'Rolls-Royce' badges from the intake manifold. He considers this a 'little win' that helps keep motivation high during the extensive restoration process, and notes it will also facilitate future engine modifications.

Goal: Perform initial cleaning of the engine bay and remove decorative badges in preparation for further work.

apart cuz this is hard hard time has finally come to give the rolls this first wash I'm super pumped for this because the engine bay is all cruddy you can see where the water level was it may have been up to here for momentarily and then it came back down here and it was like real dirty but somebody said in the comments show the engine next time so here it is it's like a overboard um got a bigger board more stroke than the n73 BMW V12 engine this is is what this is just bigger displacement and it has a really cool looking metal intake manifold uh not the first time I wased this car but the first time I've watched it since it's been mine just trying to get all the mud off everything in here all cleaned off here and now I realize how much crud is stuck to it like these all these little all these little turls on there from a tree that it was over and bird poop that's great but you know this is Rolls-Royce paint it's good stuff it'll it'll buff out and I wash the nle too just cuz I thought um I should cuz I had the stuff out and I've actually never hand washed that thing myself before cuz I thought it would take forever and it took me probably like over an hour just to watch the side of it with a mitt cuz I don't even have the Brushy thing I need to get one of those do you guys want to see videos more videos like working on the nle and fixing stuff on it cuz it definitely needs it and it's going to be done I don't know if the interest is there because as time has gone on my microscope of what I think I'm supposed to be posting about Zooms in and in and in and in and I feel like some of the stuff we do is not worth showing but cuz the kind of stuff that could get me by when the channel is really small is not the same as what can work now without you know shooting the algorithm in the foot it's weird it's a struggle all the time but if I know you guys want to watch stuff even if it's a small percentage of you I'll post it I'm far less filtered than a lot of people are but it's always it's a constant battle to not fall victim to that too much if you know what I mean I don't know it's just one of those things anyway I was checking this out I think these badges straight up unbolt from the intake manifold in this cover so I'm going to see if they come off and if they do that makes uh decorating the new engine way easier what we're going to put in here has no business being in a Rolls-Royce Phantom but it will fit under the hood it will be daily drivable it will make…
