A YouTuber has found and restored Snoop Dogg’s famous Cadillac and is hoping to drive the car to France so that he can reunite it with the rapper.
Sam Hard, who owns Hard Up Garage, could not believe it when he came across the car in a museum.
The 1966 Cadillac Deville Convertible became iconic after Snoop Dogg arrived on stage in it at the MTV Music Awards in 2007.

Snoop Dogg also took the car on his ‘Up in Smoke’ tour in 2000.
It eventually ended up in London which is where Sam, from Fareham, UK, found it, as reported by Luxury Auto News.
As soon as he was presented with the opportunity to buy the car, Sam, who has been a lifelong fan of Snoop Dogg, had to take it.
While the exterior of the car was perfectly fine, the interior had been completely wrecked.
Sam is now on a mission to restore the vehicle and is hoping to reunite it with Snoop Dogg.
He has handled the mechanical issues, put in a brand new sound system and will be repairing the interior and repainting the bodywork.
Uploading videos of his and the car’s journey to YouTube, viewers are really enjoying watching Sam with the car.
One viewer wrote: “I can’t wait to see this God bless you both keep up the great work.”
Another commented: “BRILLIANT !!!!! Sam and Josh you are automotive first aiders of the highest order!!!”
“Thanks for letting us get involved! Dope car, can’t wait to see it soon,” said a third user.
Another person wrote: “Snoops gonna want it back.”
Sam even received a comment on one of his YouTube videos from someone who claimed he’d been on tour with Snoop Dogg for 20 year.
Three weeks later, the commenter said that Snoop Dogg had seen his video and instantly recognised the car.
Snoop Dogg will be opening the 2024 Summer Olympics which are held in Paris, France, this summer.
Sam is planning on driving the Cadillac to Paris so that he can show Snoop Dogg exactly what has become of his old car.
