| Car made with wood Splinter Supercar
When Joe Harmon and his graduate student buddies at North Carolina State University needed to complete a woodworking project, they didn’t set out to build a bridge with popsicle sticks. They had a Cadillac engine and wood. Lots of wood. Lots of different kinds of wood. Says the leader of the group, “We figured that if it was possible to make a 425mph wooden plane 60 years ago, we could have a go at a wooden supercar."

It's pretty cool that they started right from scratch, making their own veneer strips to later weave into what would be the skin. I didn't watch all the vids but suspect they might have reinforced the skin with some sort of epoxy resin.
Either way, cool project.

It's okay, the Italians have proved recently that it doesnt really matter if the car is made of wood or carbon & aluminum... they all burn.
