Brilliant!
I have a few questions.

1. what are the pros/cons of the suspension design in this case? I can see how it works because the pictures are well done but thoughts on design choice?

2. for anyone here who has done this caliber of work before: could you list the skills and equipment required? Roughly how does this process work? This is the caliber of work I would like to do in a few years but I'm just a hobbyist. Right now I'm getting pretty decent at tig welding and some aspects of FI and tuning.
How does one move from that stage to the custom frame, oversized custom single nut wheel, mid engine, custom drive beast?
