Kevin Thomas is a huge fan of Formula 1 racing. Just like the rest of us, he dreamed of owning his own F1 racing car someday. Although, he always knew that it’s almost impossible to afford an F1 car, which could cost more than $7 million. But, he never gave up on his dream. So, he started building one in his garden shed.
Spending about $13,000, he managed to find most of the parts for the car on eBay. After putting all of them together, he made an awesome street-legal F1 car with a cool design. He’s been building the car one part at a time for a long time. And now it’s almost complete. Only thing missing is an engine. Kevin is looking for a Formula Renault 3.5-liter engine right now.
It’s amazing what you can do with a mix of motivation+ free time+ money. Luckily he had a garden shed. If I were doing something like this, I would have to build a new house to get this up in my room. No thanks. I’m totally happy with my awesome DVD collection.
