He could have spent that much time building a real one!  Then he could have actually have something to drive.  I quit building models when I started building real cars.  Real cars are MUCH harder, and more expensive, but worth it.  This guy has awesome skill.  Just saying with all that work, and time, he could have a real car.

Machining parts that small is an art! The amount of work he put into it has to be astronomical.

Great work!

The starting point for his model is a 1/24 Revell-Monogram kit, identifiable by the body inaccuracies. See the large side window openings for example ;)
