Understandably, this has led to many enthusiasts restoring the old cars or keeping them in pristine condition throughout their entire lives. However, it’s unlikely that anyone else has spent as much time or money fixing up their old Chevy as this man.

That’s because about 10,000 man hours went into building the car from scratch piece by piece. It’s got a small block V8, that makes around 400 hp, incredibly well tuned suspension, and a pretty beautiful looking body. All together, the bill totals about $1 million which is sort of a hard number to swallow even when you understand how much classic car building can you cost.
