[@benstacey5508]

@@avreve It is a replica of a racing car which was built during a time period where the current-day safety mechanisms didn't exist. Nobody builds a car like this with the intention of building a car which will be perfectly safe - someone builds a car like this with the intention of building an incredibly fun machine which they're deeply passionate about. Safety does not always come first, but despite this, you can see that the builder has made a great effort to make the car as structurally rigid as possible. If safety is a primary priority for you, a custom, hand-built replica of a car which wasn't safe in the first place, simply isn't for you. The Porsche Carrera GT was known for being an extremely dangerous car, and you have a digital one as your profile picture! It is a terrible shame that you watched this video - a video showing passion, commitment, unbelievably hard work and immense skill, along with a dream coming true - and your first thought was to attempt to detract from what the car is built to be. By extension, you essentially attempted to detract from the builder's dream of creating, owning and driving this car. It's much easier to criticise other people's actions and dreams than it is to achieve your own dreams - get out there and do what you need to do rather than worrying too much about what other people are doing!

I went to school for mechanical engineering science while I was in the Marine Corps, and got my ASE certs after getting out. From both a mechanical engineering perspective, as well as an automotive technical standpoint this is beyond impressive. Building a go-cart from scratch is fun, and only mildly difficult depending on your suspension, drivetrain, steering system, etc. However the mechanical strain and allowable tolerances increases exponentially as the size of the vehicle increases. The planning, dedication, and work that went into this is absolutely an outstanding achievement.

4000 hrs at 90 euros/hr = 360,000 euros + materials. That's the value.

@@VitoFranchesko People who have the skill set to design and build like this earn more than 10 euros/hr in France. This is not a minimum wage level skill set.

@@internettoughguy Absolutely true. Although i think this kind of craftmanship is invaluable. In order to involve someone like him in a project, one has to convince the guy to make something this impressive.

man, i almost shed a tear @ 13:22 when you guys were SO excited the car MOVED.. it may have been only an inch, but the TRIUMPH you feel in your heart of any distance... immeasurable! well done!

[@andrewdavis8665]

Unbelievable! Great job man, I can’t even imagine how satisfying it must have felt to take it out for the first time.

[@rmac1199]

It is a joy of mine to see a dream conceptualized, planned, projected, prepared and completed. Amazing! I can only imaging the elation felt that first time out of the doors and then the first time on the track!

Man, I can't describe how happy I am for you and for the work you've done! Congratulations!!!

Cher Benjamin , j'ai suivi la réalisation de votre projet ( insensé ) en 2017 étape par étape , vous êtes un génie pas de doute et que dire du modèle choisi la GT 40 , une légende ! Félicitations pour avoir surmonté tout ces obstacles et d'avoir réaliser un tel chef d'œuvre , votre talent en encouragera plus d'un à se lancer dans une telle aventure !

That is a beautiful car. Watching you and your colleagues work shows you have skills and dedication. Then watching you drive shows you are channelling your inner Ken Miles. Nice job, man.

[@freedomfriestv]

Dudes! This was chilling and inspiring to watch. I can't even imagine the pride you have in this build! GREAT JOB

[@freedomfriestv]

@@1234KeithB I think maybe you don't know what the word "Pride" means. noun 1. A feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements. I would hope someone would feel pleasure or satisfaction from something they built. Weirdo.

@@1234KeithB You seem to have no idea what pride means... You have pride in something you are proud of. Boasting has nothing to do with it

This is absolutely crazy and so wonderful! I cannot believe you actually built a car from scratch, let alone a classic one such as this and with great attention to detail. Absolutely fantastic! Kudos to you.

[@therealalphamale4716]

One of the most amazing videos I've seen on KZbin in a long time. Well done, guys. Lots of love, dedication, commitment went into this build. The car is lucky to have you. It will be cherished. But... You put the steering wheel on the wrong side 😅

I feel the same. This was really one of the most amazing and inspiring videos I‘ve ever seen on KZbin. You can have everything in life but you gotta work hard for it
