It took five years for a car fan to transform his 974 yuan (£100) Ford Ford Granada into a 9.74 million (£1m) supercar Pagani with parts he bought on eBay.

Nick Truman, a 53-year-old car fan, originally just wanted DIY to make a coffee table, but after finding that the parts didn't match the size, he decided to build a Pagani. After buying Ford for 4700 yuan, he began to look for cheap tires, windshields, gearboxes and other parts in eBay.

▼ since he has never seen a physical Pagani, he bought a toy car as a reference. Then he spent thousands of hours of manpower assembling the scrap metal into tens of thousands of cars in his mind.

▼ also faced all kinds of obstacles in the production process and put into the process of blood and tears (yes, he also accidentally cut off his fingertips while doing it). After that, the twin-turbine car finally came out, and his engine uses the engine of Audi V8, which is claimed to be able to run to the 500bhp, but he hasn't actually tested it yet.

▼, let's take a look at the real version of supercar:

▼, a father of three, is happy to pursue this interest with his children, but his wife doesn't seem to be so interested.

He searched for various parts on the auction website and invested about 146000 (£15000) in total. However, the car cannot be legally on the road in the UK.
