  • dear santa...

  • His next project is a scale Sophia Loren

  • He should have built a tube frame and built an exact replica.

    too much work for little gain.

  • I wish I was 8 inches tall now

  • He should've at least made it large enough so a kid could drive it :)

  • I would be interrested in the power that moror produces, I guess its lower than 1:10 or what measure he used, because the loss which can be accounted to miniaturization. But who knows, I wouldnt be surprised it has 1:10 + 10% of the ferrari power :)

  • @HybOj make no mistake , you put a Stuart Little in that thing he would go over 100mph dont worry about that its a prpoper racing engine only smaller this guy is a genius..

    would love the remote control on it

  • Damn that`s awesome.....too bad it`s so small,maybe get a squirrel to drive it......LOL

  • Respect

    Still he got enough skills to work for ferrari :-)

  • sounds like an air drill

  • This man has inspired me since I started my own similar build. Complete rookie compared to him obviously. It's a Saab Aero-X concept car and my moto is from this video: "I could not buy one, I had to make one"

  • one of the most truly amazing things i've ever seen.

  • this is by far my most favorite video ever....the time it took and the effort...shows the love and passion one had to do something like this....My hat is off to you sir....awesome

  • After a while, it gets soooooooooo sad!!!!!!!!!

  • @davkrod oh ok, and would you please enlighten us why you think so? That this is sad?

  • I agree. Ferrari should have hired this guy. This video has to be over 10 years old, because Clarkson is still a spring chicken in it.

    I see this guy as a missing remote appendage to Ferrari.

    Ferrari, you are missing your appendage.

  • It is a natural for Ferrari to hire this guy, even if it is just to detail prints. The guy would certainly be a dedicated employee.

  • absolutely beautiful!

  • Fantastisk!

  • He could have started a business or invested, made the money and BOUGHT a real one.

  • Holy m*********g christ!!! We need to find lilliputian to drive it !!!

  • Ferrari, if you are reading this, what are you waiting for? Sign him up.

  • I'm speechless. That is the most impressive thing I think I will ever see...

  • 2:06....that..is... a....BIG ASS MODEL..

    also, love the music coming from that v12, sounds like it's running rich to :D

  • The Guy speaks a great Englisch xD

  • he should scale all of his molds up and make himself a real ferrari

  • they finally make a car to fit richard hammond!

  • Hosted at nothing toxic? So you can rob a video and host it and then claim it by putting hosted by one it? This is bollocks. Good video but nothing to do with nothing toxic.

  • I wonder what power the handcrafted engine is making

  • Not that he has the molds for all the parts, he should make another one. It would only take a fraction of the time.

  • Isn't that Brit from that car tv show top gear?

  • yes it is

  • @Robfoxman Jeremy?

  • @MrTbdesigns yes it is

  • @counterstrifekid Jeremy Clarkson it is ! Beauty of a car......i love Ferrari!

  • @counterstrifekid Clarkson? Is that you?

  • Respect. A wonderful car with an amazing Sound!

  • which scale?

  • jerremy clarkson

  • i want 1 !!! very nice.... great job

  • nice work.....

  • sounds like a search for a hot model with big tits found this instead.

  • and i spent my childhood masterbating lol

  • you mean your teenhood? I don't think children know how to masturbate, or if they did, wouldn't have the urge to do so.

  • he should set it up for remote control lol

    this thing would fucking hammer !!

  • my god its a real car just small

  • Awesome..amazing....Now What???

    Make a dwarf to drive it?

  • Exactly.

  • I wish I was that guys grandson then I'd show the car a good time

  • This is just amazing!!

  • Makes my revell kits seem kind of lazy.

  • incredible

  • its amazing what for a Genius he make his dream reall^^

  • that guy has alot of time on his hands

  • we all do.

  • you raise a good point

  • and talent

  • This is truly amazing but I wonder if he asked himself when he was done 'why didn't I just build a full sized car?'

    Either way, I could see that thing bringing in hundreds of thousands of dollars at auction.

  • "I could not buy one, I had to make one"

    This is the highest level of madness I've ever seen. Respect. I just cannot find words for this...

    awesome!

  • Look at all his tools, what the hell. and he has NO MONEY? put the tools to use and create your own business... what a fool

    thats gotta be over 20k of gear just in the opening scenes.

  • I wonder what his wife thinks about this car... Probably she wants to kill the car or the husband..

  • Wife?

  • that guy is so crazy he spent 15 years wow he put so many word into this

  • Ferrari should give him a free car for this. Or, at least give him a job that pays him enough to buy one.

  • i totally agree

  • Incredible!

  • To wirelesscps: No conflict in the description. It took him 3 years to create the drawings and 12 years to build the car.

  • This guy is better than the dude who built the Lamborghini in his basement. Actually made the motor from scratch? AMAZING!!!!

  • i know it. i bow down before him

  • this guys description is wrong he say 12 years and in the vid it says 15 years

  • Now we just need to find a small living person or creature that knows how to drive.

  • ahahahahah ,that was funny lol !

  • jeremy clarkson sure sounded excited

  • awesome

  • he is a GENUIS!!!

  • Does anyone know which Clarkson movie this was from?

  • wow, freaking awesome

  • why does it have 4 pedals?!

    btw call mee! ill buy it gladly x]

  • i think its the dead pedal.

  • thats cool

  • I hope he doesn't have to sell it...t would be good if he got a little assistance to make the next one.

  • truely fantastic...ferrari should give him a job...or a ton of money for this and put it into a museum...

  • Both

  • Who is this guy?

    I want to call and congradulate him.

    Dedicating all his life for that...very brave.

  • That is possibly the most awesome thing I have ever seen.

  • Beautiful, a true craftman

  • i'am sad now cause i have not enough money to buy this extraordinary man his own well deserved 312 PB...

    i fills me with joy to see that in this world are still people who can brin such passion and dedication into their dreams...

    amazing!

  • If ever a guy deserved a Ferrari this is THE guy!

  • wow, but if you went to that much trouble, why wouldnt you make a real size one

  • Probably the cost... he spent so much making that model... a lifeseize would've been MEGA cost

  • @mudkrab expenses with material would be quite a few times higher..

  • did this guy make another???

  • If I remember correctly, he decided to sell this to create funds do build a P3 or P4 replica

  • you obviously made a shrink ray

  • lol

  • nice work

  • ha hammand, top gear best show

  • clarkson is talking there.

  • "You sir, are truly an Engineering god. My hat is off to you sir. And that's saying something, because I didn't own any hats. I went out, bought a hat, and put it on just so I could take it off for you."

  • lol

    he makes it after 12 years, goes 2 show it to his wife, sudenly he falls down , BOOOM car in to pieces

    XD

  • The man seems so sad

  • î think hes very tired building that beautiful car all those years :)

  • @omarsalem91

    That because he thought he could drive the car but at the end he noticed it was too small.

  • u talk lika a gay cowboy.

  • buy this man a beer, simple amazing

  • a beer? they should give him a real ferrari.

  • lol @ clarkson giggling like a little girl

  • 993 GT2 next or 993 gt1

  • 1 mad crazy mother fucker.

  • This may be a dumb question but what is the fourth pedal for?

  • its called a dead pedal.

    it doesnt do anything, simply to rest foot on while not clutching.

  • Well, that's right - it's usually to rest your foot on in a road car but it is really used to brace yourself against cornering and braking loads in a racing car. It's very hard to drive a fast racing car quickly without it.

  • needs to build a 935 or 917 next

  • that is absolutely unbelievable. that guy is something special. he should be given an award and a real ferrari for his effort

  • Brilliant.

  • thats impressive but if he was going to spend 12 years making it why not make it full scale so he can actually drive it...

  • Good point, AgentOrange04. Its definitely a very cool thing that he did but after it all, (like the majority of us) he still has to sit back and fantasize about what its like to actually drive one.. A seemingly unnecessary plight, for a guy who has the knowledge and the means to build his own very own Ferrari. I mean, my God.. He spent 3 years just drawing up the schematics!!! Hopefully, he'll keep that in mind for his next project and it won't take as long for him to make.

  • valves and even working gearbox! wow...

  • How does everything still work the same when scaled down? Aren't there certain chemical reactions that work differently depending on quantity of materials?

  • The only chemical reaction your going to get based on quantity of materials is more reaction. The reactions don't work differently. And the only "Chemical" reactions in the entire car is the combustion process and the catalytic converter If he made a scaled down version of a catalytic converter I would be greatly impressed not that I'm not already what he did is simply astounding. but if he made everything to scale then fluids should be able to work to scale too

  • Certain processes can be affected by scale, but the scale would have to be much smaller for the processes involved in this vehicle to be affected.

  • Couldn't a small tree monkey drive that? It's the coolest thing ive ever seen.

  • maybe the world's smallest man go give it a go!

  • That would be hilarious! Theres a video on youtube of a monkey on a tiny motorcycle.

  • that is amazing

  • Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant.

  • I'm speechless!

  • Yes, superallye, that's how it affected me and it still does near 10 years later. I still just can't quite get my mind round it ! If you look at the high quality shots and story on the craftsmanship museum site which show the real appearance and details it is even more mind blowing.

  • Its a shame guy like him will probably never have the real thing and some rich assholes will drive it without respect for it..

  • He shouldn't have to sell it. At this point if he wants to build another one, Ferrari should sponsor it...

  • Yes, mustangphil, had some close up shots and specs of this - it's on the net somewhere. Trans is exact - straight cut gears dog clutches, Dry sump system, Tacho is cable drive as original, headlamp lenses exact from etched dies, he learnt to work glass to make them, learnt to mold rubber to make the tyres and other components. Many thousands of pounds ? - hundreds of thousands. And dead right about Ferrari , if they haven't already they should offer to purchase or support future work.

  • It is the craftsmanship museum site that you can see clear detail shots and all the facts. There you can see just how unbelievably beautiful it is. It amazes me as much now as it did 10 years ago when I first saw it.

  • who would sell that? no matter how desperate

  • ferrari should buy it off him, that model is as priceless as the real car. good on him!

  • make an enzo rudeboy!!

  • wow amazing but why doesn't he just make a full size one haha!! that would be mint!!

  • that voice is Jeremy Clarkson ejejej

  • slap a raido and put that on the track please

  • One HELL of a kind!!! Amazing!! Speechless!!

  • WOW!

  • That kind of dedication, Ferrari would do good to hire him.

  • are u god??

  • dechire cette ferrari v12

  • I would eat my cock to have hjis skill

  • Dont attempt that. I already did,;)

  • wtf lol

  • This is absoutely unbelievable

  • Holy cow man. You rock!

  • Very inspiring.

  • My new hero :) -kevin

  • :-(  )

  • OMG I think my heart just stopped then screamed I need to rob a bank

  • respect,,

  • This guys a legend... He's got determination. I've never seen anyone stick to a dream that long.

  • respect....

  • JEREMY CLARKSON!

  • isnt that jeremy clarkson's voice??

  • i think it is

  • definately is it was from one of his tv series cant remember whitch but remember it awesome piece of model building

  • it sure was or is, this guy is a true motorhead, i think if he sells that model he can afford to have a real ferrari, but would u really want to sell a ferrari that you yourself have built? cant wait to see his P4, if he got to build it...

  • Yea, its from an old Topgear show.

  • I'm pretty sure it's from Jeremy Clarkson's Extreme Machines.

  • early to mid 90s if i remember correctly wich could mean his next project should be 2/3rds done dont let hammond get hold of it

  • mezmerizing. absolutely mind-blowing.

  • i'm sure ferrarri would pay a fucking fortune for that

  • Ferrari should give him a job!

  • what can a person say but wow that is incrediable!

  • tres bien... :)

  • Simply... amazing... lovable... perfect.

  • anyone know what's happened to this car?

    he could have made an RC box to sit on the seat and try and drive it to see if it will really drive. that would have been awesome!!!

  • sick!!

  • Totally bloody amazing, all from a few photos the man deserves to be given a Ferrari for his efforts and the model should be on display in a museum

  • you're absolutly right they just have to give him one

  • I can't believe this but i have had the good fortune to meet this guy, about 12 years ago when i lived in france i used to race go -karts with his nephew and his brother used to fix our car cos he worked at a Citroen garage. One weekend he took me down to meet him and look at the ferrari he was building. he had the body shell, chassis and parts of the engine manufactured at that point, but nothing was running. I can't believe this is on here.

  • My god, Michelangelo didn't WASTE 3 years of his life carving the statue of David. This was also mans passion and probably a more difficult act....David doesn't walk, this sculpture moves and speaks! This is an absolutely amazing feat! I would give anything to be able to do that! God bless him!
