Default Building of the '49 Mercury Dwarf Car

Don't know if this video has been posted here yet, but check out this video of the building of this pint sized '49 Mercury Dwarf Car by Ernie Adams at:
http://vimeo.com/57941515
So far Ernie has put over 30K miles on it. The way that he builds his parts can be very helpful for many.

Amazing. It's hard to imagine the degree of talent required to do something like this.

Amazing work. I wonder why he didn't use a 60HP V8, would have looked cool.
