waltzinblack Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Absolutely awesome. A friend studies systems engineering.. he will love that. Thanks for sharing! Quote
Will370z Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Seriously impressive video, great find. Reminds me of my uncle who designed and built the turner sports cars. He was a very gifted engineer. I remember when he was in his 80s and decided he wanted to build a minature steam engine, so he started by maching all the parts in his workshop building it up over time. So skillful. Quote
sparky370z Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Brilliant, remember a guy making a full scale model of a ferrari. If I remember it was pretty acurate and his 5 year old son used to ride in it. Prob on YouTube somewherea Quote
Wasso Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Needs spacers and lowering, maybe a visit to the Zed shed would sort it out! Quote
rtbiscuit Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 love doing machine lathe work, but my talents aren;t at that stage yet Quote
gort Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 Seriously impressive video, great find. Can't say I found it, some guy posted it on Facebook. Quote
Wasso Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just had thought, how did he spark the fuel, didn't see any spark plugs going in Quote
AK350Z Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just had thought, how did he spark the fuel, didn't see any spark plugs going in He was just running it off an air line i think. Quote
Jimmy P Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Amazing, I wish I had the patience for that! Quote

Chris`I Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just had thought, how did he spark the fuel, didn't see any spark plugs going in He was just running it off an air line i think. +1 I was soooo hoping he could fuel it and fire it up properly but lack of seals etc I didnt think he would be. Still amazing. Quote
M13KYF Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 the one in clarksons video does though Quote
Chris`I Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 the one in clarksons video does though Yeah I remember seeing that one too, simply amazing, although on a slightly more managable scale Quote
nzr350z Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 That is awsome,i work for an engineering company with CNC machines,we wouldnt find that easy to make.Not much hand skills like that available nowadays. Quote
