Garage
This guy built exactly what HE wanted to build, a street legal McLaren influenced car. The craftsmanship is incredible, and I'm sure he looks at it like a proud papa whenever he steps into the garage.

The original McLarens were not much larger- The Big Block Aluminum Chevy was shoehorned into the engine bay, the firewall was relieved to fit the drive pulleys at the front of the engine.

This version was much overbuilt with a space frame. Good idea for a road car. Originals were Alum monocoque costruction and had a minimum of safety structures.
