Radial Engine powered Car

Post by BREAK »

I stumbled onto this car on youtube. Some really nice design and machine work involved, shown really well in the third video.
Can you embed youtube videos here?

I've been on his website for a few hours now. Looks like just about everything on the car is made by hand.
Such a huge amount of work went into the car I'm kind of surprised they didn't go with something a little more "flashy".
