DIY Supercars: Italian Builds Incredible Cars From Scratch
An Italian coachbuilder has designed and built two supercars from scratch without the use of a computer or sketches. Moreno Filandi relies solely on his skills as a mechanic to build handmade custom cars from metal work with two incredible supercars already finished. Moreno’s second and most recent creation, the Moreno Ever S, was built on top of a red 1990 Mercedes.

00:00COMM COMM COACH BUILDER MARINO FALANDI HAS TURNED
00:20HIS HAND TO SOMETHING A LITTLE MORE SPORTY. THE 55 YEAR OLD MECHANIC COMPLETED HIS FIRST
00:26SUPERCAR FOR JUST 12,000 EUROS.
00:47IN 2009 THE IDEA FOR HIS SECOND CAR WAS BORN.
00:56The idea of a car that is a little bit particular, a little bit pink, a little bit unfinished.
01:03And this idea of the corners that intersect, these shapes, these triangles that intersect,
01:10this idea of something particular and strange.
01:15The Everest weighs 1,420 kg, the engine comes from a Mercedes 5000,
01:23and it has 340 horsepower.
01:29The Everest has a speed of 270 km per hour and from 0 to 100 it takes 4.5 seconds.
01:39When people look at the Everest, it arouses curiosity,
01:48they stop and I'm curious, it's a positive thing.
02:01Sometimes people ask me if I build cars for other people, but I don't do that.
02:07This is just an hobby for me.
02:11My job is to live and make cars.
02:14This is my passion, my hobby, my freedom, to do what I feel like doing.
