Sure you can build a car.
Assuming I have the spare $$$$$, I could build a brand new 1969 Camaro. With
out ever going to GM.
Assuming you have the know how and skills, your biggest problem might be
deciding which vendor your money will go to for various parts.
Plenty of other US cars could be built in a similar fashion, but the Chevrolet
is probably one of the more popular ones.
Some also mentioned VW's. Another good canidate.

computer? We did in the earliest days of the PC- the 8-bit era. Heck,
that's all one could do! It was limited and is to this day. AMD vs
INTEL control what we can do. Has anything really changed?
Happy computing.
