I built 6-wheel ‘Rolls-Royce’ for my KID out of wood in just 120 days – now he can drive me around in his fresh wheels

A TALENTED carpenter has built his son his very own mini Rolls-Royce using planks of wood - and it can even be driven.

The incredible build, which resembles the look of modern day Rolls-Royce cars such as the Phantom and the Ghost, took the creator just 120 days to complete.

Woodworking genius Truong Van Dao, who's famous for making wood art for his children and showcasing his builds on his YouTube channel, NDWoodArt, is perhaps best known for his handmade wooden vehicles.

Previously, he's built a wooden Tesla Cybertruck, an Apple concept car, and even a bizarre time machine-inspired motor.

But perhaps his most impressive creation yet is his six-wheeled Rolls-Royce.

In a video posted to his channel, Dao shows viewers how he starts out with the floor of the vehicle, which is reinforced with a metal chassis.

He then adds axels, a fully working motor, and a steering rack.

Then, he used a large Rolls-Royce shaped cut out that's laid out on the floor of his workshop as a guide before attaching large wooden pieces to create a framework.

With an array of tools, including a small chainsaw and a power chisel, Dao is able to work on the car's finer details, such as its windows, headlights, and the iconic grill.

At a yard, he finds six full-size wheels and after giving them a quick rinse, he attaches them to the car's axels.

The woodworking genius even takes his time to detail the inside of the motor, which includes a hand-crafted dashboard with dials, a speedometer, and air vents.

He even painstakingly builds a bespoke Rolls-Royce steering wheel, made using a glossy, darker shade of wood that even includes the RR logo in the centre.

Other details include the car's licence plates and wooden version of the world renowned Spirit of Ecstasy sculpture that features on the bonnet of all Rolls-Royce models.

After 120 days, the car is complete and looks incredible, and Dao and his young son can be seen taking the mini motor for a spin on real public roads.

This comes as another motoring genius created his own Tesla Cybertruck in just five days for £500 - and it's likely the only one in his country.

The unusual-looking car uses a 1991 Lada motor underneath the homemade Tesla body, meaning he's even able to drive his new creation.

And elsewhere, a classic Rolls-Royce that's incredibly rare has been unearthed after it spent years gathering dust in an old garage.

The vintage Silver Wraith II model is believed to be one of just 2,135 that were produced between 1977 and 1980.
