Dattatraya Lohar from Devrashtre village caught the attention of the Mahindra Group&rsquo;s Chairman last month after a video of his iron car went viral. Lohar&rsquo;s car, built from the scrap, is powered by a two-wheeler engine and auto-rickshaw tyres.</p>
<p>
Mahindra said he would preserve the man&rsquo;s creation at Mahindra Research Valley.</p>

The billionaire said the local authorities will sooner or later stop Lohar from plying the vehicle as it flouts official regulations, so he had offered him a Bolero which the Maharashtra villager had accepted.&nbsp;</p>
