But what does he have it registered as? Insured as?

You can build whatever you want and get it plated as long as it meets the criteria set out by MTO. I'm not saying that it's not fabulous what the guy did, I'm saying it's illegal what the guy is doing once he was done building it.

Ok, let's take this down to a "personal" level. You're coming back from Bruce and this guy t-bones you at an intersection. Now, because he's a bodyman and not an engineer one of the fenders bend at a weld seam which, because it wasn't engineered to do otherwise, slices through the car door and takes your hand off.

Now, likely you will have insurance to buy you a new car or pay out the black book on the car, which is good because his insurance will deny all coverage. But your weekly disability coverage is limited (unless you're paying extra) and now you're getting $600 a week for as long as you're off. Which I am assuming is less than you make because it is less than half I make with no OT. And if you can never do your job again because you can't hold the screw/wire and turn the screwdriver with the same hand, tough titties.

You won't be able to sue him -- he's 27 and has f-all to take.

THAT'S what I'm looking at. Maybe that makes me old or jaded but I've seen enough people that f up their lives or someone elses because they don't think things through.
