I bought Marcus Rashford's Wrecked Rolls Royce wraith from auction and now im going to rebuild it. We managed to get it driving in the last video but now i need to look at the structural damage which is not only expensive it also takes specialist repair. Im going to attempt it myself.

Always nice to see the manufacturer/dealer willing to lend a hand rather than gatekeeping all their helpful knowledge
It’s so hard to do. The hoops I had to jump through when he came to our dealer were immense. The good news is now my whole dealer network is up for it 😅
The coverage mat gets. It's in their best interest tbh ;)
Hi bro!
The engineers are usually happier to help, it's the corporate side that doesn't want to share.
First
Freddy is a real one come to visit your friend after a near miss … is so humane… we men these days can learn a lot from such loyalty and support…
Yeah!
Hes over for shedfest...but glad that he stopped by
I like Tvarish but there's a definite wealth discrepancy
@@Mcfc2Richwhat do you mean
Just ask Jared...
Hey Matt. I'm a BMW Body Technician with 12 years of experience, so I love to watch your videos.
You are not doing bad, but need to remember some steps, like welding spray called Inox in between the joined parts where you have sanded for weld connection, and you have to apply more glue in between the aluminum and steel part to make sure everything is covered and has some spacing between it, since aluminum will corrode way faster than iron.
On the rear quarter panel you have to actually replace it because of the bonded seem in the wheel hole, but you can ( not professional fix and not approved fix ) go over it with a sealer or body glue to make sure it's closed for no rust in the future.
There's some more points but you learn every time you do a car and it's great to follow your development.
Keep up the good work :)

I like how the cameraman is included in every video, but Mat armstrong's dad is a really nice guy and supports Mat and helps him rebuild cars. He really deserved the ferari that Mat gifted him. Cheers Mat Amstrong, keep up the great work
I am 74, female, haven't got the foggiest about how to build cars and I LOVE your enthusiasm, craftsmanship, humour and how you, Matt, work with your father and the team!

Do you think is attraction is the fact he doesn’t know what he’s doing very expensive cars he’s just a cowboy🤔⁉️🤠🤡
Coming here and hoping you see this Mat. I’m 34, American, never searched a thing about super cars or rebuilds, and some how the TH-cam algorithm showed me one of the McLaren videos. I ended up watching that entire series and have been absolutely hooked since. I’ve binged the Audi Q5 up the the Audi R8 and I’m loving every bit of the content. You have quickly grown to be one of my favorite TH-camrs. And side note, your dad is one of my favorite people that I wish I could meet. Y’all seem like genuinely good people and I love the channel. Never stop doing what you love!
Just a quick shop tip when you are welding in a nice engine bay put a fire blanket over the engine. Those hot sparks will melt little pock marks into hoses and plastic covers if they land on em. Can also be bad if by chance it landed on part of the wire loom and melted through.
you may want to double check any of the electrical connections I do up on the car ;)
Good luck with that freddie i can see how hard is that from your videos 🙌
Coolest part of the video is that you came over to help out. This is true friendship and great to see
😂😂😂😂
Love the guest appearances
I'm sure your handy work will be fine...😂😂 love watching your channel too..
I'm a Body Structures Engineer ( worked on Rang Rover, Defender and jaguars). Original Rivets are SPRs ( self pricing rivet) and can only be fitted with SPR gun which require double sided access. The one you bought are called POP rivets or mono-bolts. If you are using mono-bolts, make sure correct adhesive specs suggested by BMW/Rolles Royce is used. Otherwise it might fail. Front structures performance is is very crucial in high speed crash.
disclaimer: Just a suggestion
BMW use mono-bolts for repairs because you often don't have access to use SPRs. They use SPR at the factory because it's all assembled in order so they have access. Mat is also using the same BMW panel bond here which RR use.
SPR's are in use mostly due to speed not strength, the rivets he installed are probably stronger than the factory aluminum SPR's.
Sure, I also think that Mono bolts can do. Trust me foreal 😊
Interesting info. Thanks for posting. Just wondering whether the structure repaired in the video is little more than a headlight support bracket. The design looks, to me as a layman, to have very little in the way of impact resistance, so not playing any part in structural safety in the event of a frontal collision.
Self-Pierce Riveting (SPR) is a process used to join two or more layers of material without a predrilled or punched hole. Self-piercing rivets are the connecting element for joining aluminium parts, mixed connections, and combined joining and gluing without emissions.
I love how you attracted over 2 million viewers in the first 20 hours and still assume that RR won't have a clue of that car's history when you roll in for warranty work. I also love that I have yet to spot you using a manual or any kind of documentation at all in your videos. Keep up your excellent work! You spread such pure optimism here.
I have an AVO Mexico which I've had since the late 90's. Was hit by, of all things, a bloody Metro! Old lady pulled out on me and took out the rear quarter (steel Forrest arches). Was devastated as the car had a full metal respray just a few weeks before. Called up a friend who is a panel beater and he arrived with a couple of friends. Truly a science and real magicians! I sat there in amazement watching them work away until they weaved their magic on the rear quarter (very similar damage to your Rolls). Took an afternoon but was astonishing what they managed to do. I have nothing but admiration for their skills. The body shop where I had the car painted took pity on me (think they really liked the car and the colour) and did the touch-in respray for absolutely free! I still have the car to this day. I still rag it around hard as it should be driven. You would never know the damage was there.
Been a body repairer for 3 years and I’ve been hesitant to start me own thing, watching the videos here is truly great motivation 👌🏻🇿🇦🇿🇦
We need us some kasi flavour, you should probably try🤧
Go 4 it bro!!

One thing i know for fast African panel beaters know there work. 👌🏾 I did know this guy in London and he dont buy body parts to fix nothing and when he done it's even better then the one off the shelves only thing it take time ⌚ 🤦🏾♂️ which i didn't have so i will buy the parts and bring to him for fitting and he didn't like that 😁😁😁..
Hi Mat, I live in the United States.
I'm Ricardo, I'm 55 years old. I no longer work. I have a disability. I use oxygen to walk and I was a truck driver but I had heart surgery but here we are.
I am a fan of your 2 channels, you are incredible, I am very entertained and I laugh a lot, also your entire team is incredible and a special person. My is your dad from Apollo and you are both enjoying each other's company. That is nice, take advantage of all the time you are with your father, mat because many of us do not have the opportunity to be with our father and share with him your achievements and projects. Thank you Mat for everything you do to entertain us and learn through this medium, thank you 😅😊

This is my favourite build of yours so far. Great effort, re-building the body panels rather than fixing on new ones and it’s a RR! Stylish motor.
Class.
Hey Matt, love your videos mate. My dad passed away yesterday and your videos bring me great comfort and happiness. I love seeing you and your dad work on all these projects together. Tell your family that you love them today never know when it's the last time. Much ❤️
Me. Too
R.I.P to your dad, hope you and your family get through this time together ❤️
May he rest in peace ❤️
Sorry for your loss Brother ❤
RIP to your dad
Mat, the sensor in the grill is a night vision camera & the spirit of ecstasy cover should have x4 small springs fitted underneath it 👍🏻
I was gonna comment the exact same thing lol. One can even see the ACC in the bottom part of the bumper where BMW puts it. So it can only be a night vision or thermal camera as BMW also put those cameras in the grille.
upvoted so maybe he sees this
Long time subscriber. You can use a all direction spray straw for the cavity wax. The factory has a process to get wax into the panels.
Pressure bleeding is absolutely the best way to get the air out with ebrake systems.
❤ once again such a thrilling episode, to see Margret (Maximus) Mansory come to life and be rebuilt. What an amazing team around you. Great to see Freddie taking time out from the wiring loom. Keep it coming can’t wait for the next instalment of Maximus Mansory. “Are you not entertained”!
Let's have a little shout out of appreciation for Marcus Rashford and his car guys for passing on the parts, they didn't have to and it's a proper cool gesture. Another appreciation shout for the Rolls Royce tech, passing on simple yet essential information to help out. Superb. Great progress, can't wait to see this finished and 'Rolling' on the roads!
Hush money for not revealing true speed at time of crash
Seems to be the only time Rashford does any passing 😬
Probably agreed to buy it back once repaired
@@willsmith39😅
Yeah a multimillionaire that still wants paying for smashed car bitx
Mat, some friendly tips for you with body work:
Don't use a belt sander to grind out spot welds, this removes material from the adjoining panel that you want to keep. Always drill spotwelds with a spotweld drill bit.
Always cover glass with at least some thick cardboard, fire blankets are best, but cardboard is the cheaper option. This prevents any sparks from burning the glass, you'll be surprised how far those welding/grinding sparks fly, and quickly make small burn marks.
Anyways, great videos!
i commented on the spot weld drill bit earlier, but it's a diy store tool inventory it seems...
22:42 maximus
You are absolutely right, but to be fair, his main use of the sander was to undo the welds on the wrecked brace, and then he used it to grind down his new welds. I was surprised to see him using a smallish regular drill bit to tackle spot welds too.
I usually don't leave comments on TH-cam videos, but I just had to this time. I really enjoy watching your videos! Although I'm not familiar with car mechanics, I love problem-solving. Mat, you have an incredible talent for pinpointing issues and figuring out how to fix them.
The most amazing inspirational person I have never had the pleasure to meet. Matt is the best.
man shout out to Rashford and his team for being supportive!
Marcus will buy that back in flash when it's done
@@mrvertigo23and get money for his Gallardo
Pro tip Matt- get a welding blanket and throw it over the engine bay while you weld, keeps those sparks from doing nasty things to the exposed plastics, and from possible fire.
Monica 🫵🏽😂👌 love the Chanel 🙏🫡
@@HOTBLOCKGAMING nah, you should be embarrassed
You can use an old fire blanket
Quiet, bot
Was gonna say same thing.. watching the splatter hitting the plastic engine parts was making me wince! 😮
The best part of your videos is dad is helping and having a fun repairing cars with his son
Word of caution I had similar good quality mr push type (not mr push) bleed kit from halford and hooked it up to a full tyre and it exploded dramatically fluid everywhere all over engine bay and wings so check the max pressure for the one your using 😉 keep up the good work Matt love the videos 👍
probably the best car repair youtuber out there and been up there for the past few months
100% Better than what I've seen on TV.
Years*
Yeah
Mat is good but personally, i think ChrisFix is the best car repair youtuber.
@@Just_a_random_birb You can't really compare because they make different content. But as a former heavy-duty mechanic, Matt's content is more interesting. I don't really need tutorials on how to do something
Pro Tip from a Euro tech, you can pressurize the brake system by pumping the pedal up, and crack the hardlines at ABS module block, the air will escpae from behind the flare fittings and it will resolve the airlock issue at the Module. You can do this at the master cylinder or any other air lock point with a joint.
Good tip if you swap an abs module but you’ll still need to bleed at the calipers after!
does this also work for honda fit hybrid?
So talented mashallah, I wish I had someone to fix the car my grandmother left me before she passed it’s just sat in my garden 😢so I’ve been watching all your video to help me learn slowly. Keep up the good work guys may god bless your channel.
I’ve been following up on the E24 over at YCR. Man the level of detail in that restoration is definitely one of the best I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to see it be reassembled
Would be epic if Rashford can come and see the car once it’s done!
Rashford is up his own arse so I doubt it
And he’d probably just sulk and walk off can’t see any value in him being on the Chanel he’s doesn’t seem a likeable type of guy tbh
He'd sulk off when he is asked to do some work.
He would pull a hamstring trying Mat's new stronger brake pedal.
Sell it back to him for a mil
Been following your short for on tiktok for a while but this is the first project ive been watching your long form videos on and i'm hooked.
Mat. Wow! Mate there are enough hours in the day for you to read where all your fans come from. All over the world 🌍 mate. I live in Hamburg and you never cease to blow all of us away with your builds. As some people write. No matter how bad a day has been. When we watch your videos with your dad etc it just brightens up our day, evening ! Hope you take Freddy and his mates out for a good curry mate. Best care repair/ rebuild channnel on TH-cam Matt. Keep up the great work mate. You deserve all the success in the world Mat. You are awesome mate.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃

@ROLLS ROYCE. It is dope to see this kind of casual corporate kindness. This is the best form of advertising. You are ahead of the curve!
Another great episode, this weeks itch scratched. I have really enjoyed your early stuff as well, I am working through the Bentley videos as I have always fancied one of those. If anyone hasn’t started at the beginning with Matt’s channel it’s really worth it just to see how far he’s come confidence wise. Keep it up buddy 👍👍
I’m completely invested in this series.
Me too, knowing absolutely nothing about cars. Mat presents so well, I would argue way better than mainstream TV and their offerings.
Me too. I literally look forward to new videos particularly on this Mansory Rolls Royce
I was quite close with my Dad, who passed away a bit too young a few years ago. It always warms my heart and makes me happy to see you and Tony working together in these videos. Great times to be had. Thanks for the great videos. cheers
Matt, when you weld, can you talk about what equipment and settings you are using? It would be helpful for us amateur welders out here...
Excellent, Mary coming out saying, “for gods sake let me out”..fantastic job Mat and the team..
Would 100% recommend a spot weld drill bit Matt. Will make your life loads easier and helps saves an otherwise destroyed panel
Dude you went from repairing your girls 20 grand car in a driveway to repairing half million dollar cars in like 3 years or so with zero experience..that is absolutely amazing.. good for you, I hope you keep the wraith you deserve it
That sensor in the grille is probably a night vision camera, my BMW x5 has a very similar one in the grille. It was like a $2000 stanalone option on the x5 and not a lot of people went for it so you hardly ever see them. Works pretty well though, theres usually a button near the headlight switch that brings up the night vision display on the iDrive screen, it also puts up a warning in the HUD and gauge cluster if it detects animals or pedestrians on the road.
Still blows my mind you started in a car park with minimal tools. Bravo Sir, you’ve done good.
This rebuild will seriously be historical.
This and Freddies Mclaren will be forever written in the history of youtube
Notice the cross-over moment from Freddie's latest P1 build vid on the correct pronunciation of Aluminium?! 😂

It was lovely to see the car progress, just having both headlights in and working for example was brill !
Respect as always for the work and great video, thanks!
So when I used to work on cars I worked at a salvage yard and we would cut the whole quarter panel off of the damaged car with a saws all and a torch, then we would take the quarter panel off a donor car and weld it onto the salvaged car easy fix and works amazing. You can not tell the difference after it’s painted.
I love the relationship you and your dad have. I get along with mine, but couldn't imagine a project like this with him. Great content in itself.
Dude flawless repair so far. Getting Sue was definitely the play for this rebuild. I'm really glad you didn't crash into a tree at the end. I would imagine after the accident with the Ferrari, that Matt's heart dropped all the way down to his pants. That feeling when your foot starts shaking uncontrollably on the brake pedal after almost crashing your car sucks!
*Lambo not Ferrari
Who else kept refreshing to get new updates/episodes…?
Can’t come on TH-cam without actually searching Matt Armstrong for any update at all
Kudos to what build u doing … you cld really be building a Lego car and I will still be eager to watch.🎉

Been following the journey. Felt bad for Sue initially, but seeing how much you've saved so far on the mansory, I'm glad you could use her for parts
Just had the exact same problem with my BMW with brakes. Bled the brakes as normal, drove away, no brakes! Turns out it was the ABS pump but it also contains the ecu for TCS and had to be sent away to be refurbed/reprogrammed. Don’t know if this could be the same but might be problem but might be worth looking into!
Hands down, best automotive series ever. Truly informative and entertaining. Cheers Armstrong team!

Couldn't wait any longer for this. I kept my eyes on TH-cam the whole weekend. I think there is a fix that took back stand when Matt got this Royce. Big up Matt, your videos are so inspirational.
Mat you really are a man of many talents. This is a monumental undertaking. All the best.

This is one of the most interesting series i've followed in a while!
Every video leaves you with a big smile on your face. Not a lot of people can do this. Mat's a real one
Facts bro
@matt Armstrong. You should get some 99.9% IPA and after the chisel with a string inject the IPA to where the bond is and leave for 30 mins or so this will help loosen the panel bond and make it easy to separate. A tip you may be able to use in the future. Hope this helps
Hope you're not suggesting Neck Oil - that would be a waste of a good pint.

Nice job on the bleeding, I think you should get the large motor trade bleeding system it holds more fluid. All fun at your place
Matt, you should have put epoxy primer over bare metal, etch primer is porous so it mean it lets moisture trough to the metal, etch primer just makes a good adhesion coat for next coats, put epoxy primer over etch primer you put or else you are risking rust over the area you repaired😁 love your content
