Udo Hasse polishes his Wooden Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Made Out Of Pine

Over the weekend I found this story over at Autoblog.it, and I completely forgot to bring it to you yesterday.

But being a Mercedes site, we had to give love to Udo Haase, a master craftsman who painstakingly recreated Mercedes' legendary 300 SL Gullwing out of pine. The endeavor took Haase roughly 2,500 hours to complete, and was constructed without any screws or nails; only glue was used to hold the pieces together.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is dedication.
