He probably could have built a full sized version without much more work.

That is simply amazing.

I've seen people do the same thing with locomotives. Thousands of hours of work to build every aspect of them only scaled down.

Man, that is amazing!!! He said he has 22,000 hours of work in it, and it took him about 15 years to do. Everything works, engine, gear box, gauges...all in miniature, and exact replicas of the real thing. Even sounds like the real thing, and would probably perform on scale like the real thing.

It is a true accomplishment...and inspiration to model builders. Has anything like that been done in recent history?

Here's a question...

That car is simply fantastic. Given the hours that went into and the shear marvel of the car...

If you'd built it and Ferarri aproached you saying they'd trade you a new Spider for it so they could put it in their showroom/museum... would you do it?

If I put 15 years into it... probably not.
