I'd go Vette like your cobra frame, even if its just for headroom/legroom purposes! Flat floor pan, over footbox headers will give you lots of room for comfortable driving, i dont think the Kellison is very big inside! I'd go old school for the rest: engine, body, interior. Engine: old school, but with one of the new plenum stack electronic injection setups like the Kaase one.

Cant wait to see the progress!
