Default off topic but cool video

I found a video to prove to my wife that while I may be obsessed with my vette there are people who are far more obsessed with cars then me. I thought I would share so that you can similarly defend you vette hobby as not being too obsessive.

At least we can drive ours!

Thanks for sharing the video. That is absolutely amazing. I do however, think that if I were that talented and had spent that amount of time fabricating a car I would at least have to make it so that I could drive it. Sure makes the time I spend in my garage seem so minimal.

As old as the interweb, dupe, and off topic.

Other than that, it's awesome

I saw this (in much lower quality) back before the Forum existed... still, it is really cool that this guy built the car.
