WOW!!! Sounds like that was a BBC Top Gear show. I'd recognize Jeremy's voice anywhere. That guy must have some serious engineering smarts and reserve cash to custom mill all those parts.

If it took him 15 years altogether to design and build it, with 20,000 hours of actual work time, that would be over 3.5 hours a day spent on this thing. Wow.

I am a firm believer in " THINGS DON'T JUST HAPPEN, TO HAPPEN !! " God's plan made this guy, a SPECIAL guy, and through the beauty of his special mind and GOD given talents, he made this for us all to be GOBSMACKED. There are few people on the face of the planet with such skills - One resides with us here on PM DOT COM.... DORIS ! need i say more
