A car enthusiast transformed his humble Toyota Crown into a Lamborghini-style supercar in Thailand.

Kritsana, who also goes by 'Kit Racing', dismantled his sedan and rebuilt it from scratch using cheap parts to create his own luxury vehicle in his garage in Pathum Thani province.

The sleek-looking car - painted a glossy red with Kritsana's nickname emblazoned on the side - is an impressive chimera of affordable car parts that he haggled from the market.

The petrolhead said: 'I am the owner of this car. Truth is, I like supercars, but I have limited funds. I'm aware of how expensive these cars are. I see people in other countries try and customise their cars and there are also Thais.

'I know a Thai person who customises cars. I didn't know how, so I called him and learnt all the legal technicalities and other things.'

Using his mechanical know-how, Kritsana painstakingly pieced together a Mitsubishi engine, Nissan Coupe doors, a Toyota Hilux Vigo suspension, power steering parts, and other car accessories onto his Toyota Crown's chassis to make his DIY Lamborghini, which cost a total of around 500,000 baht ($14,000).

He said: 'I spent five years on this. I do it when I have free time. I have a garage so when there are customers, I have to complete those tasks first...

'It's not yet complete. More work is needed to resolve the suspension. So many people are messaging me. They all want me to do the same for them. They ask me if I can provide the customisation services and what the prices are, but I have to reject them because I'm only doing it for myself.'

Kritsana said that he hoped to make a Bugatti car for his next project, adding he would still need to save up funds.

Kritsana's garage business, Kit Racing, specialises in car and pickup suspension and accessories. Kritsana also offers custom solutions for hard-to-find car parts.

He said: 'Whatever part you're looking for and you can't find it, come to me and I will build it for you. I can build anything for you if it has to do with car parts.'
