This thing only has 30 billion too, man, it's a baby. a Time Capsule, but dude, the interior is serious, I didn't do it, I didn't do it, I had no idea the details here are beautiful, yeah, to gain the owner's trust, we told him we'd start with this car,

I can't sleep at night anymore, so the first plan of action is to sweep this all up, then we'll move all the items to the left of the car to make sure we have room to drag it and we'll pump the lift up the tires and take the sucker out to the sunlight and look for the first time in daylight so starting to sweep everything up I can tell this car hasn't been moved in 21

years

and then everything else in the garage hasn't been touched since the 80's No I'll say how many other vehicles are there and you already caught a glimpse of one that's there but we don't want to spoil what's to come just make sure you're subscribed to this channel because the next few videos are going to be absolutely crazy when you see what we found.
There is nothing else on the Internet like what is in this garage, but the owner of the garage, who is not in this video at all. We want to keep it private, he allowed us. We took everything out and found mounds and mounds of raccoon feces everywhere, which was just a foreshadowing of what we would find later inside the car, which is not a fun time and I mean, look at this garage door, can you see? which hasn't been I moved a long time ago, but for the question in the video, leave your answers in the comments below.
I want you to try to guess what else is in the garage behind door number two. I'll tell you that there are several vehicles that go to I refer to a couple of our videos and we think they are the lowest mile of those vehicles in the entire world, but leave your guesses below, oh disgusting, take it, man, oh, it's disgusting , I think this is a raccoon head, man, look at this. tea, oh my god that thing is twisted, oh that's crazy, gross, well we know. I think this is a raccoon. We know there are raccoons here, I guess, and now that the tires were inflated we were able to load the Cadillac on our trip. finish cleaning Go up this side of the garage and go back to the workshop and take a good look at it, so we came back from the farm with the CAG Cille and you can obviously see that the paint is covered with all this dust and rubbish. and poop from the garage, from the barn we got it from, it's only 33,000 Mi.
I have high hopes that the paint will be pretty pretty and then the dirt basically acted as a protective layer against, you know, the bugs running up and down. the paint and the raccoons and everything that was in the garage, like I just mentioned, everything about the raccoons that we had, they had piles of poop, we had to use a front loader to get the poop out of this garage, um, for the cars from the future, so you guys Again I have to keep an eye out to see how much poop, if you're not interested in cars, a lot of poop, more poop than you've ever seen, that's right, there was a lot of poop anyway, hopefully we'll give it to this car a wheel. detail and if you mean the wheels, I have never seen white walls divided like that.
I love that style but to remove these hubcaps we have to find the key that would open the lock and allow us to Remove these center caps also makes it much easier to polish the interior of this car it is ridiculously beautiful it is in such good condition and it is simply beautiful. What I really like about this car is the burgundy interior that matches the burgundy top and burgundy paint. then with the white walls, the white lines, the white interior, I think it's a cool spec, it's very 80s. Brent loves burgundy the way he likes light burgundy.
Brent really wants to wrap his future car in light burgundy so maybe you'll see it in the future maybe the distant maybe the distant future Brent okay let's open this thing that was too soft oh man wa whoo who smells like poop , buddy, jeez, how did it get there? Do you know what CRA is, yes, actually, that's a very good question. he must have been like yeah, he was like oh, I shut up, I'm sorry, I was trying to act like the raccoon must have been squished there, shitting, oh, they tore this whole thing apart, dude, they took every piece of this.
Do you 100% think the raccoons did that? They did it, they made a nest out of it, man, they just left us all the plastic carefully, not really, you're right because look, there's none, there's none of this plastic that's gone. They're all there, they're all that's impossible to do, dude, that's crazy, that's impossible to do, wow, this is the only piece left, yeah, holy shit, that's crazy, he probably couldn't get in that area to get it, let's go ahead and, uh, get it. get rid of all this droppings, start vacuuming them up, so after vacuuming up all that raccoon poop and then removing the windshield wiper blades, I figured where there's smoke there's probably fire, so let's go ahead and get rid of the weather, we've got a little more. poop and then I think what we're going to do is take off this cover that's covering the blade, the action of the wiper blades and see what's underneath, okay, wait, wait, we've got some lines. looks like okay, there's going to be one ooh oh man, look at that, that's disgusting, look, that's exactly why we have to take it out.
It's huge, that's disgusting, yeah, look at them hoarding all the plastic bags. I love plastic bags and apparently this was some of the heat shield fiber under the hood here, oh yeah there's a couple more turds in there man this thing is a Cadillac it shits the bill so it's a big deal Let's take this whole thing apart and clean this area. Where the Cadillac cabin gets the air for its air conditioning or heating, typically in cars from the 70s, 80s and 90s, all the air comes from this general area and many times rodents get in there and make nests if they have a barn find, it's a great idea to check there because this can blow some really nasty stuff all over the interior, so let's start the car to pop the trunk and hopefully look for that tailgate lock. mace, but I just wanted to. to show that the raccoons and rodents made a number on the casing for the electrical system and luckily the electrical system looks good so also note these terminals that go on the side of the battery they are dumb they are very very dumb and I hate them anyway, Mike, do you have power?
No, let me see, I am powerless, I have no power, as we can see here, the rodents that were here had fun with these cables and probably with some other cables that we cannot see, this is also something very interesting. I've never seen before this must be some kind of little relief valve on the top so I don't really know why this would happen where the pressure would increase and a little bit of oil would come out, that's strange if you know why. that would happen, what would the pressure be like to come out on top, uh, let us know, okay guys, good job, job, I'll see you in the morning today to

wash

up.

Thank you to keep for sponsoring this video and for the free product I wish I had when I needed it most, so check out Keeps.com. WD details a special offer and just remember that individual results may vary. I have to go back to work. Something really interesting about this Cadillac is that the keys have a gold coating and I wonder if it might actually be like real gold. a flake of 24 karat gold on top because it's starting to wear off anyway, we couldn't start the car anyway. I'm not sure if there's something, a ground that's disconnected or what, but luckily we have the trunk key and of course, the cool sliding Cadillac emblem that reveals the actual keyhole, oh but it's perfect, perfect, Mike , buddy, Mike, wait, is it empty?
It's new, but all the cans, all the cans, are empty, they burst at some point, you don't know this happens. If you leave the cans in there for too long, eventually they'll end up leaking, so all these cans open them there, let's see the top opened, oh wow, so I don't know what happened here, so it might be like, yeah, this one is like exploding, brother with a can, yeah, that air is still here. I just opened it now that's crazy the real aluminum deteriorated here in May 1903 so 21 years ago this was put in the trunk so I probably bought it parked the car forgot about its awesome Mountain Dew Cold Radi and this guy here and this looks like a special wrench, sweet, so now we're here to remove the wire caps from the wheels, uh, I'm not going to use this.

original

tool for now I'm going to use our little nylon pry tool to remove this.
I want to avoid any damage and it comes off pretty easily, it should lock, there we go so no one can steal your caps because normal caps just pop open. and anyone could take them off if they want good luck finding this tool today. How beautiful it was that we have to remove all these wheels and we have to lift this car in the air so we can have it on stands, so when we are cleaning wheels with white walls. I think white walls are actually one of the most fun parts to clean and what we use here is our Puro all-purpose cleaner and an SOS pad for the white walls and iron remover for the rims We will soon be launching a dedicated rim cleaner , but with enough love you can make these wheels that haven't been touched in 21 years look like new and what we're here for is we're going to polish these hub caps. also to remove all the rust from the surface and make them brighter before putting them back on the car, in addition to polishing the Cadillac symbol and cleaning the wheel wells very well.
Now we're going to move on to the actual

wash

ing, but first we need to go to the engine compartment and clean here so we can put a plastic bag over the inlet that goes into the car, otherwise a lot of water will get in and we don't want that, and for our Prein, you already know. where I use the best all-purpose cleaner on the market, Puro, if you want to try it, it's on thedescription below oh when I wake up he and this clip here is strictly for all the Brent fans saying I sit behind the camera and I never actually detailed I told Mike to hand him the pressure washer , let me take care of this trunk, there you go, I just give the people what they want, but while we clean this part, look how beautiful this painting is.
I can't get over this CER and while we're here, we're also cleaning behind the gas door, which makes me want to ask when was the last time they cleaned behind the gas door. I feel like that's not a common area cleaned or it gets overlooked a lot and do I have to tell you why we cleaned the ceiling for the last time while we're here? We'll also quickly coat the vinyl with our all-purpose cleaner and then use a brush to agitate it. I get it in and then I rinse it all out so it gets into those pores and really cleans it out so before I wash the engine bay I'm vacuuming even more because once this thing is wet it's impossible to get out and in the meantime I was doing some research there I found something Mike and Brighton haven't seen it yet no no no don't you look away it's a surprise definitely a good surprise it's corn oh dude he's sick he used to have knobs he doesn't have juice he doesn't have juice There's so much garbage there used to be even more before It sucked up everything between the pulley assembly and the skid plate, so I think before we go any further we should drop that tray and see what's underneath, buddy.
Ican see everything. from this side right here RJ all the poop yeah it's ready to come out oh wow that's a lot of poop okay so after vacuuming the engine bay we thought we'd go ahead and check the air box just to make sure that nothing had crawled in there and to be honest, they did a pretty good job sealing them. I'm talking about a lot of cars we work on. You know, the top layer of the filter is just covered and not only does this one look pretty clean. I mean there's a little bit of stuff in there, yeah, but I wouldn't say anything that's too egregious.
Not bad. They did a good job sealing this all up and this filter is pretty clean, so let's put it all back together. and look at the engine and if you remember we took them off earlier, now we can clean these inlet and inlet guards and lastly before we put soap on, we're going to wash the undercarriage so we put a battery in the Cadillac, but unfortunately we are. I still don't have power so I don't know if maybe the raccoons are on the ground, but it's not working so I was smart enough to buy something called a Power Probe.
I bought this for this very reason when we couldn't get power. one of the seats so we can bypass the actual car battery and connect this power probe to the external battery and then what you do is you go ahead and find the circuit for the seat rail, in this case we were having trouble reach these As you can see, I was able to get the seat to go forward, but what you do is you connect it, connect the ground to one side of the circuit and I'm not an electrician so I could be messing this up and then you try the other. connections until you find the one that moves the seat pretty well and then when you want to go the other direction you change the connection, put it on the other cable and then tap the other direction and move the seat forward, so that's it Pretty cool, it's amazing.
Great, the reason we needed to do that is so we could take the seat out and vacuum everything and clean the carpets underneath and this carpet is so beautiful it's in such good shape along with the rest of the interior so let's go. to remove it now so it has time to dry and for the rest of the interior we're going to use an all-purpose cleaner with some magic erasers and soft bristle brushes and that's really the extent of PR okay so in the trunk of In the Cadillac we saw that Mountain Dew was there. I'm a little worried if it all spills, so I'm going to remove, remove this really nice Cadillac carpet that they got and let's see what kind of damage it caused, hopefully.
It's not that bad, I could see all these red spots that are probably from that, so that's good. I expected this to be much worse. It's a little heavy, a little sticky and gross, but we'll be able to clean everything under here. this mess and we should be fine so the cic is all set to polish, but before we start I want to show the state of the paint so we have a little bit of oxidation and then we have some of the raccoon poop etching left. and uh, and all that dirt and debris that was left on the car, but the paint is actually in very, very good condition, believe it or not, the dirt acted as a protector and kept this paint in very, very good condition, so I made a couple of test points. to see what I was going to have to do to make the painting look better again and I thought that I was going to have to compose many vertical or rather horizontal panels, the ones you already know.
There was dirt, but since it wasn't in the sun, it wasn't very hot and this is just a quick light polish and look how pretty the paint turned out, so that's definitely going to be the plan of action we're going to follow. I'm not going to go too crazy with this car because it doesn't need it. I'll even show you what the back looks like afterwards, I mean look at the difference, there's a light polish and we're finishing it up, so that's going to be the plan of action. I'm going to do a 50/50 on the front hood and we'll see the before and after.
One thing I should mention is that we have a white painted stripe all over the body. of the car, so I'm going to have to be aware of this so I don't wear it down and start seeing the red come through the white, so we're going to be careful in this area particularly, but I think this is actually going to be a pretty easy polish and, Lastly, this car is covered in Chrome, so we polished all the metal and re-coated the wheels, but if you enjoyed this video, be sure to subscribe to the channel for what's coming and also stick around. to the end of the video because I added some fun behind the scenes stuff from our announcement that we made in this video.
