00:00It's the most amazing car I have ever seen. The car is very noisy and it's really big
00:08engine. It's like hell.
00:17The Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. Elegant, sophisticated, beautiful.
00:27This is a Rolls like no other. This is my ultimate Rolls Royce dragster.
00:33Yes, you heard right. And you've never seen a Rolls, or a dragster for that matter, quite
00:39like this.
00:40Rolls Royce are normally a little bit boring cars. This is a little bit...
00:52My Rolls Royce entry was fast, beautiful and fun. When I saw this Rolls Royce, it just
01:00took me to my heart and it's the most amazing car I have ever seen.
01:05And this machine also has a special place in Petri's heart.
01:10This is my favourite build.
01:11And that's a mighty big statement from a man whose previous creations include a supercharged
01:17quad bike, a 200km per hour modified moped and let's not forget the combine harvester
01:25dragster.
01:26It takes one and a half year to build this Rolls Royce.
01:33With help from his friend Rain, Petri started with a steel frame chassis, lined the interior
01:40with carbon and leather and called on a local furniture company to help with the finish.
01:45We don't know what's happening in here.
01:50You see it looks quite much like an ordinary Shadow from 74, but you see the engine and
01:56you see the exhaust. Also when you come outside of the car, you will see the drag wheels in
02:03the back and you will see the car is much lower than an original one. You need to have
02:08that on the racetrack to cut all the power and in the back of the car, you see how wide
02:15the wheels are.
02:17And at the heart of this beast, if a supercharged Oldsmobile V8 isn't power enough, there's
02:23always the option of nitro in the back for that extra kick.
02:26Absolutely don't need it, but we can do it.
02:31In here you have all the things you need. Leather, interior, everything for a nice ride
02:36and also for a fun ride, champagne, crystal glasses, and this is very luxury when you
02:42go to the drag strip.
02:44The car is very noisy and it's a really big engine. It's like hell.
02:50We're going to start her up.
02:53First we're going to remove the steering wheel.
02:56More easy when somebody takes the wheel.
02:59It's very tight.
03:06Isn't that just normal? We need more power.
03:28You hear it, I think. It's very loud and fun.
03:36It's crazy.
03:45While Tony has no plans to part with this super silver shadow, if your pockets are deep
03:50enough, he may just be persuaded.
03:52This is a keeper, but if somebody gives you enough money, of course it is for sale.
