Like Box said - it could be done, but it'd be an incredibly costly exercise.
Why spend all that money trying (most likely in vain) to reengineer a body that's designed for a glass body? There was a Kirkham body / Factory 5 chassis Cobra that was for sale in Ebay US recently. To put it politely, it looked hideous because the chassis didn't suit, and the builder didn't have the time / willingness / expertise to make it looked like the two belonged. There is such an intricate support structure required, and a lot of old school talent required to wrap the body around the framework that it wouldn't be feasible for you to ask someone to do it.
