I love that velo.
Re. ply: Wood is a much under utilised material in 'one off' car projects but there are some examples. The guy that built that velo also built a car using wood and based around Citroen 2CV mechanical parts. It's a work of art.
There are also the Splinter, Marcos and Costin F2.
Boats and canoes have been built using bent ply or layered veneer, known as cold molded construction - ply wood in situ. That velo borrows another construction technique from canoe making; stitch and tape. There's a lot of info on how to build using those techniques around.
One really good book (it's around as a downloadable pdf) is published by West Epoxy on cold molded boat construction. That covers a lot of useful techniques.
