That's the result of wanting a virtually unobtainable car and having zero budget.
The advent of the internet and the computer age in general make all this stuff more doable, don't you think ? Draw it in CAD, research the
issues, source the parts etc.
When this Gentleman started this, he would have had a hacksaw and some old copies of autosport.

it may well have taken him 20year, but thats chassis looks like a cracking bit of work. and like zil says, when he started it would have all been in
his head, and he'd have had no drawings or anything to go by

I wasn't critising him, just trying to give others some hope! 
Just don't leave it too long, like this poor soul............

Cracking job but a nightmare to finish!
Looks like a Hewland on it? Worth a few quid for that!

Quite a sad story really - all those years working on it and he never got to finish. Does look like very nice work too. Couldn't his slacker
son have helped out his old man a bit?
