This guy built his own ferarri!
-
Apparently he spent 20,000 hours if i heard properly and like 15 years of his life to build a PERFECT 100% working replica of a Ferarri.
Gearbox, engine, all 12 cylinders, everything works. It even sounds like a Ferarri!

haha...that doesnt even come close to comparing, eric!!!

-
Amazing but I imagine with his skills he would be more
than capable of earning upwards of €20 per hour .... so
20,000 x €20 = €400,000 .... more than the cost of most
Ferraris! But again it has been his hobby :thup:'It would work if we could find someone to drive it!'

Maybe that is his new project.

Idk, it might be hard to breed a 1/4 scale person, that could take longer than the car to produce.
But I gotta admit, that wooden Ferrari is something else entirely.

I had a buddy whos dad built a lamborghini. I gotta see if I can find some pictures but this damn thing was awesome and about 1/4 of the cost!

I heard about those kits and stuff. Apparently you can do it using something like a honda frame and motor then put a ferrari body and everything else over the top of it. Not exactly fast, but it looks just like them.

I'm glad he built a 1/4 scale Ferrari. Because with that kind of talent and determination, he probably could have taken over the world if he wanted to, and I wouldn't want to be one of his subjects.

Idk, he could be a kind benevolent ruler. He seems happy, in an "I just spent 15 years of my life on a model car" sort of way.
