Vintage Crossbow Made From An Automotive Leaf Spring

I have had an old crossbow in my shop for several years, a gift from my late grandpa. Up until recently I wasn't sure if it was a one off design or made from a plan. I got my answer when I stumbled across the exact plans on vintageprojects.com. It turns out Popular Mechanics published the article in June, 1944. Cool stuff! If anybody wants to build one the plans are linked below.
