I say if you've got the time, the skills and the finance why the hell not.
we all know it feels better driving a car that you've put the effort into yourself Smile

Yeah there is some talented people around, unfortunately with modern production techniques it is a dieing art.

If you want to see some more cases like this, check out these sites.

A handmade Cobra Daytona Coupe.

and a restoration of a custom ferrari race car built from a dozen photo's.

Now that is art.

just imagine what he could pull off with my supra.

I'd say that guy's one in a million, but that's not giving him enough credit.

Damn and I thought this was going to be about buying an LH torana and building a flare kit out of cardboard.

Oh well I guess looking at that beauty will have to do.

Copyright?? Nothing wrong with building a replica.

It's not as if he is doing it for profit.
