That my friend, is truly amazing! He's got my vote.

Looks kind of suspicious to me. There are some gaps in the photos from the first up to the full body on. The wheels keep changing as does the shop in the background and the quality of some of the underbody work seen in the first pics. This may not be one car but composites of at least two if not more cars in various stages of repair. Nice car though.

I agree with you Dan. I think this is a hoax.

Look at this picture. This is modeling clay:

Now look at this. This is not from the same car. Look at the left edge of the dash. The thickness of that "seagull" shape is the same on both pictures. But to go from the first to the second, a nice thick layer of leather or other upholstery must be added, and that would add to the thickness (it even looks thicker in the first pic)


The front here looks like clay as well:

This one aside, I'll put my vote in for the guy who created a working scale model of a Ferrari race car. Anyone have a link to the movie?

I don't think so. There is this fellow who is turning three wrecked cars into one car.

[Dan Owens]

Don't get me wrong here. I think these are real cars but I think it's multiple cars in various stages, not one and the same car from start to finish. I will say that the finished car is one nice car though.

I'm with Dan Owens on this one. For sure it's not the same car all the way through the process. The exterior is with out a doubt fiberglass. The Polish translation states that the "molds" are complete ! They also say that the panels are dimensionally identical to the original, that would explain the hood gap as the base for the kit car is a bit wider. I would imagine Mercede's copy right attorney's are going to be on the guy like white on rice.
