This Rolls-Royce pickup may be the most American Roller of all time.
That may sound like a contradictory statement, given how synonymous the brand is with the UK.
But Jordan Wojciehoswki and his dad John have gone against the grain with this creation.
They took a Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and placed it on top of a Chevy dually – dual rear-wheeled – chassis – and it is epic.

Why did this father-son team create this unique Rolls-Royce?
If you hear the name Rolls-Royce, a few things are bound to spring to mind.
You might think class, sophistication or even James Bond.
What you’re likely not thinking of is spiked wheels and being totally badass.
Photos of this high-riding Rolls have been circulating online for a while after Jordan posted a picture to Facebook.
Jordan and his dad run Central Conversions in Florida, where they work on Rolls-Royces and Bentleys, as reported by The Drive.
This project is the perfect blend of British upper class poise and American blue collar rough and tumble.
Jordan told The Drive: “The truck was originally built to haul other Rolls-Royces on a three-car trailer.
“It started as a joke that my dad wanted to haul around his Rolls-Royces with another Rolls-Royce and it eventually turned into a reality.”
A 350 Chevy crate engine was the first to go under a hood, although it would be swapped out for a 6.0-liter LS.
A closer look at the American take on a British brand
The first thing that catches your eye is the imposing wheels on this thing.
They’re 10-lug semi rollers, adorned with Rolls-Royce branded caps.
With spikes like those, this isn’t a vehicle you’d want to mess with.
Its interior has remained regal, with the wooden dashboard still in place but fitted with purple mood lighting.
Rolls lovers across the internet were appreciative of this creative endeavor and shared their reaction.
One wrote: “This sweet ride is from my hometown.
“I’m the only car nut in the family, but everyone likes the Rolls flatbed when I point it out.
“We see this thing around quite a lot.
“It’s [a] daily driver and totally cool.”
Another said: “I’d like it 57.34% more if they sourced a dually bed and painted it to match the RR portion.”
Well, there’s always room for improvement isn’t there?
