Yes, very cool stuff. Amazing that you built those up from scratch using scale models. I hope you don't mind, that I clipped a few pictures from your video to post. Many people are hesitant to click the links if they don't know what they are getting into.

Didn't we have this thread a few years ago? I'm getting a strong sense of deja vu.

Cool looking cars.

EDIT: Found a couple previous threads on these cars if anyone want to go back and take a look.

In reply to T.J. :

Thank you for assisting me in any way you can.  About 8 years ago I tried to sell all the cars because the 2008 recession and burnout had all but destroyed me.  It gave my cars a lot of exposure but no one was interested so I had to keep moving forward.  I sold the 917K chassis and body to a company in Switzerland that specializes in 917 replicas and I sold the Formula One car to someone in drivable condition who will finish it.  I then focused my full attention of the 917/10.  After four Burnouts, no not the fun kind, and dozens of panic attacks, I got this car done and running on 12 cylinders from the two Porsche designed Subaru EZ30 engines.  It was going to be a toy but the recession has turned it into a major part of my retirement plan.  At 68 now, I won't have any time to enjoy the fruits of my hard work.  So it's time to spread the word again so I have it listed on EBay until next Tuesday and I'm posting it everywhere I can think of.

Thanks for helping me in any way you can.  I don't know the tricks of all these forums.  They seem to have their own idiosyncrasies. (Thank God for Spell Check!)
