About 15 years ago, a woodworker near Yarmouth Nova Scotia looked at the scale model kit of a Formula 1 car (a March IIRC) he had built and thought, "One of those wheels would look good done full size, so he built one from wood. After that, the Cosworth four cam engine seemed easy, so he built the chassis and added the other three wheels. He did the show car circuit for a while.
I remember seeing the car at the Ford dealer near Yarmouth. He said the problem was his dimensions were expanded from the model, so some things didn't look quite right but the thing was amazing.
