How to build a Mclaren SLR

Ever wanted to build your own Mercedes, well these guys did. This is not just any Mercedes, but a Mclaren SLR that they built from what seems to be an old American muscle car. There isn’t much detail on how he transformed the car into the SLR, but the images provide a nice storyline on how it happend.

Update: Some people have pointed out that the car they started out with was a 500SEC and not a American muscle car, which I mistakenly thought it was. Either way, the transformation looks very good from the outside, but we have no way of telling how the interior turned out, which for some people is the more important part.

  1. I agree, It doesn’t look like the real deal, but I think that the guy (or probably a group of people) did a good job transforming what was nothing into a very cheap SLR.

    This actually reminds me of the guys who transformed an NSX into a Ferrari. We all know it is not an actual supercar, but it kinda looks like one.

  2. Thank you Lucas, I’ve gotten a couple of emails about this. Sorry for the mistake, but to me it looked like a Mustang from the back.
