Nice quiet film, reflecting on the interesting (complicated) process, detailed juuuust enough ..... as plenty of builders on this forum know ....

Many "complete build" projects get sold unfinished (cars/airplanes) because of the complexity length.
It can take 3-4-5 sequential owners for one to personally experience the end of this film, whizzing along the rural country lanes ..... with only 8-10 squawks left to finalize ....
Nice film, fun to watch.

A friend of mine spent three years carving this '32 Ford body 30 years ago. He used a fiberglass body to trace from with a wood carving machine. It's powered by a Chev small block. The fenders are fiberglass. I think it points to how a carving machine could be used in buck building.
