amazing.... can you imagine!

I always wondered if some guy could build "real Ferraris" in his home-made Factory, somewhere out in the country. Full-size cars; Actually casting & machining the engine block, pistons, Forming the body, everything. Just like Enzo's people did 50 yers ago.

this guy is proof that it's possible!

That is simply awe-inspiring. What a gentleman, too. Proud? Maybe.

But since it's so small, too small to sit in or on, it'll only sit on the shelf. how would you operate it, hamster?

If you are skilled enough to build that, perhaps you could build a small robot. Or maybe a radio controlled scale person. Seems a shame not to be able to drive it on a small track somewhere...

maybe rick moranis (honey i shrunk the kids) can lend a hand?

If the car really is what I think it is, it also has a clutch & transmission. You'll need one soophisticated robot for that!

man, if he could build a robot to do that, the militaries would be ALL over him!

I stuck thinking if he his a complete nutter or a man who has missed his calling.

What an amazing project that gives me a headache thinking about in terms of complexity. Wicked!

sorry guys - clicked submit twice - DOH

[ilikemyz]

maybe he could implement radio control to the car to race it around,
