The Ferrari is just magical. I would never have the patience....and my wife would probably vacuum up half the parts...

Just checked out their pricing...You can get all the parts to build a blown V-8 for about $1000. Not too bad if you ask me.

yeah, we checked out some of these at work once....they are just about the same price as a new stroker for our lx's!! One guy built a Shelby Cobra replica and drove it around out by his house, very cool i must say.

I want a 1/4 or 1/5 scale charger to match the one I have in the garage.

WOOOOOOOO!!, hold on bigboy, better read between the lines on this one. That's for the castings. Now I don't know for sure, but Dinner at Smith and Welinski's in Vegas nets you that final machining is required to complete the assemble.

My superintendent builds steam engines all the time. He buys the castings and spends hours completing the machining. Very intense and not cheap.

I'm going to find out, I'll get back to this one.

Waaaaay Tooooo Cooooool !!!

That guy who built the mini Ferrari... god I hope someone gives him a real one. I can't think of anyone who would deserve one more.

That said, someone at Ferrari needs to hire that guy. Simply mind-boggling what he's done. I wonder how much he could sell that thing for?
