Ha! I was going to make a smartass comment about how is he going to get that thing up the basement stairs (before I saw the pics). It turns out that's not an issue if you have a backhoe. 
Just amazing. What a dude.

Outstanding. Wish I could do that.
On the other hand, instead of laboring 10 years in the basement, maybe I'll just work a second job for 5 years and buy this:

holy smokes, the sad thing is that that car is probably better than an actual one:tongue:
I 100% agree. I'm way more impressed with this one.
Repost I'm sure but still just as impressive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AQFRWgW9bk
Just read about this on Jalopnik, and was going to post a link here. Glad I searched first...
Here is that jalop story- complete interview with Ken Imhoff, and a lot more pictures.

This guy needs a "Real Men of Genius" commercial...

I'm not so sure it is just as impressive- maybe more impressive in some ways, but the Lambo is driveable- so I think I prefer the Lambo...
Still that model Ferrari is a monument to detail.

Aaaaaah! The article stops right where there should be "And this is what it is like to drive it" segment.
What about performance? How does it compare to the original? 0-60 times? Skidpad? Quarter mile? If it was mine I'd have to know like the second day I dug that sucker out of the basement.

Stunning achievement!
My mate is currently re-building his LP5000S. You could have sworn from this man's build that he had the original Lamborghini schematics as his car looks almost identical (tubular frame and body panel positions).
Kudos and I hope he achieves some sort of fame or recognition for his efforts! Perhaps Jay Leno will feature him on his Late Show!
