A man who found himself with a $200 used car decided to turn it into a Pagani Huayra.
The engine was used as a base for the supercar, while the frame was made and then painted red to match the flashy Huayra.
The replica looks just like the real thing – it’s really an uncanny resemblance.
NHẾT TV created the masterpiece, and it’s quite something.

Starting from scratch, he crafted the shell of the Pagani
It is crafted from a $200 car that NHẾT TV has labeled as a Toyota, although some people online have since claimed it’s a Daewoo.
A vast metal frame is used to keep the shape of the supercar, ready for elements to be crafted on top to build the impressive DIY job.
Clay is then added and layered on top of the frame – all by hand with no tools or expert machinery used.
Once the clay is cleverly moulded on top of the frame, other elements slowly but surely bring the Pagani to life.
Glue and fibreglass then help the car to take shape and take on its supercar status.
The project clearly wasn’t a quick one either, with all of the steps amounting to many hours worth of labour.
Welding also helped to make other elements of the car too.

The hard work didn’t stop there, either.
To top the impressive project off, it’s painted a shiny ruby red colour.
To any untrained eye, it looks like a fully manufactured car.
Black accents also contribute to the car’s incredible look, and anyone none the wiser to the car’s start in life would never guess the strenuous process of crafting each layer without the help of heavy machinery.
The DIY attempt pays homage to the iconic Pagani brand, which was first founded in 1992.
According to Pagani Beverly Hills, “The journey to the first Pagani supercar was long and arduous. Work began in 1993; it was not complete until 1999.”
Since then, Pagani has produced several beloved models, including the iconic Zonda series.
As for NHẾT TV, it seems the creator is quite the dab hand at creating other DIY concepts.
In fact, he has created plenty of other impressive builds, with a whole fleet behind him.
His other craft projects include a Ford Mustang, Bugatti and even a Ferrari.
Would you dare to take on a project this impressive and time-consuming?
