Revealed: Splinter wooden supercar

The Splinter, a wooden car designed by a group of college students, has made the rounds to the International Woodworking Fair, where it met with acclaim. While the car is still under construction, photos on the car’s website detail just how far along the Splinter has come from its initial design stages.

Many internal features, such as the headrests, have been painstakingly carved, cut and sanded into place, while the body is definitely an eye-catcher with its smooth wooden finish and supercar proportions.

for that thing to be operational it would need a 0.08 litre 4 banger pushing out no more than 30-50 hp any power plant more powerful than that the car would fall apart
