Man builds Lambo in basement

Took him just 10 years to make the car out of aluminum, with a Boss 351 power plan no less!

Looking at the pis, this guy dug a huge hole next to his house and knocked a wall out of his basement to get it out, lol. This is why all houses need garages.

I saw that. It's really an amazing story on both ends. Building it. And getting it out of there. lol

Unfortuantely my wife would never let me occupy one side of the garage for 20 years like that, and if I had a basement in this country it would be underwater the next day.

That is one sweet ride, and to think he did it himself. That man has some serious talent.

My thoughts exactly. The brain and hands on this guy are probably close to irreplaceable. Someone should start capturing his genes and sending them to Detroit. He seems to have the tenacity, spirit, heart and talent that is absent in many manufacturers these days.
