Interesting video and one talented craftsman.

Wow, that's impressive! So slick. At first I thought you meant a V12 put into like a Mini Cooper.

How many horsepower?

I love stuff like this. There's another guy that built a fully functional miniature scale Ferrari, engine runs and the gears all work etc.

I just showed my 6yr old boy the Lego 911 and he won't stop asking where can we buy one Dad. That Lego 911 is unbelievable. Great post.
