Merv, I am pretty sure that Rob has a RMC?

The bonded body ultimatly should be a stiffer car, I wanted unbonded for easier access while building.

Tone, I think the cheapest to build would probably be the DRB with Torana base. It has the Cobraish shape and should be fine as a cruiser, they should be able to be made to handle well, after all the LH torana used to race and win at Bathurst.
But maybe finding a Torana donor might be getting harder?
(as you may have guessed I am not a big fan of the DRB shape) The small differences make a big difference imho
