3D-printed Aston Martin DB4
New Zealander building 3D-printed Aston Martin DB4
He plans to use the body he's currently printing to build a mold, then use the mold for the body of the final DB4 replica. A custom-built spaceframe and some go-fast parts a from Nissan Skyline GTS (to be removed from his current Ferrari 250 GTO replica, which will then get a BMW V-12!) will give the DB4 its structure and power, turning it into a real, running car.

he's just making a fiberglass replica, very common on Shelby's, 32 Ford Coupes, etc. Don't know of anyone doing Astons!
Very interesting way to make the mold though.
