Great news, the Galaxie is now sorted! Thankfully the gearbox cooler pipes were okay just the rubber hose came off the metal pipe at a small joint! 25 mins to Tequila 😁
#rust2mexico #rust2rome
Oh no, not again! The Galaxie had to pull over with plumes of smoke coming out the back 😭

The Camaro has a wee breakdown…
Next video is on the way, but meantime the last three muscle cars are getting their final prep done! Massive thanks to Auto Maxx Autolavado for making the Rust 2 Mexico fleet shine again ✨ #rust2mexixo #rust2rome #autolavado
Here we have it, the final two part conclusion to the epic Rust 2 Vegas 2023 series... The Cadillac is still going but where to next? As this epic rally comes to a conclusion it'll soon be time to open up applications for the 2024 rally. Meantime, here's an update from sunny Utah. The final part will be released tomorrow evening and you don't want to miss it! If you've been waiting for this to come out leave us a comment below...
Can’t thank these guys enough for the help with the Cadillac which is now running a lot better… here’s what we got up to on our Saturday night with Cash Fab!

What a day it’s been! With the Cadillac limping it’s way up to 7000ft followed by a horrendous breakdown it seemed like we weren’t even going to make the checkpoint for the day, but when we did, we couldn’t believe what we found!

Hairpins, mountain passes and some of the most incredible views l've ever seen! Today's drive on Rust 2 Vegas was just unreal. Meanwhile the unstoppable 59
Cadillac just keeps on going...
#rust2rome #rust2vegas #59cadillac
Back on track with the route now, but the 59 Cadillac isn’t happy… meantime the views have been out of this world! This is what Rust 2 Vegas is all about!

Quick update, we unloaded the old engine and hoist from the boot and are ready to set off on Rust 2 Vegas 2023 🎉

Here’s the first part of the drive to Las Vegas… not only that, but it’s the first proper drive in the 1959 Cadillac that’s been off the road for 41 years! I’m exhausted, but I can drive…
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
The last few days have been non stop and it’s not about to get any easier. Just as I thought the Cadillac was ready, it refused to idle for more than a minute and just to make things more difficult I literally had to leave the car park… it’s now all or nothing.
Thank you all for the very kind messages and comments which I’m really grateful for 💙

It’s time for a first start on the 59 Cadillac… already running a day late for the Rust 2 Vegas start line… will it start?
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
Back on track with the videos though still running a few days behind reality! I’m so excited to share this with you and what’s coming up next… it’s been such an intense few days and I’ve documented so much of it! Here’s the next part of this 1959 Cadillac resurrection. At this stage I’m already running late for the start of Rust 2 Vegas so I desperately need to get it started and drive to Las Vegas!
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
The end is in sight with what is fast becoming the flagship of my new rally, Rust 2 Vegas. This 1959 Cadillac is slowly coming to life with the non stop work that has gone into it recently… who would like to see this car in person on Rust 2 Vegas?
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
This is a breakthrough with the 1959 Cadillac, but like everyday not without its unexpected obstacles thrown at me out the blue. I also discover that this Cadillac was last on the road in 1982 meaning it’s been off the road my whole life, then I show up and try to make it work in 10 days! It has resisted most of the way, but I think the Cadillac is finally starting to realise, I’m not giving up and we have many miles to drive together starting with the road to Las Vegas…
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
Feels like I’m starting to make some actual progress, just as well because time is running out. I’m supposed to be driving this 1959 Cadillac to Las Vegas in a few days for the start of the new rally, Rust 2 Vegas! Meanwhile I’m still doing a huge pile of work in a hotel carpark!!
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
Here’s a big update, last few videos have been a couple of days behind reality so trying to get caught up. Lots of detail in this one about all the ins and outs of trying to resurrect a car that’s sat for 20 years in a week…
Thank you all for the comments and words of encouragement, you’ve no idea how much it’s helping me keep up this pace!
#rust2rome #rust2vegas
Even though the engine is important… this job might just be more important on the 1959 Cadillac for Rust 2 Vegas!
