Guy builds "lamborghini" in basement

I know this isn't anything close to a real lambo and you wouldn't catch me driving around in something like this, but you have to admire this guys craftmanship and determination. Hope this isn't a repost (I searched!)

Totally awesome. I wish I had those skills. Love the fact that he had to tear down a wall to get it out!

The first 1/3 of the photos I was like "are you serious?" but after that it indeed started getting quite serious.

I remember many years ago there was a company making a kit that would convert a Pontiac Fiero into a Lamborghini or Ferrari. It may look like one until you hammer the throttle.

I really like the one this guy did. Took him a lot of nights in that basement, but I am sure it was worth it.
