I came of age about the time Corvette transitioned from the Sting Ray to the Mako style and I loved the shape of the 68 Corvette. My first high performance sports car was a 1972 Corvette with the LT1 high rev engine. So, needless to say, I like your car idea a lot. The end of the muscle car era made 1973-83 a decade of underpowered, overweight Corvettes with the same basic shape. That tarnished some of the lustre of the Mako style Corvettes. I don't know if a light weight car with significantly higher performance than the original cars of that era could draw a large following. BTW, is the design enough different from Corvette for a manufacturer to avoid interference from GM?
