Seems like you could start with a GT-40 chassis...

Thanks for helping me take a fresh look at the Muria. I've never liked the headlights, and I haven't looked any farther. That is really a good looking car.

On the other hand, starting with a GT40 chassis ignores the fact that most americans are overweight. The GT40's have huge internal pontoons to get over, leaving little room for seats. The one here is unbelivably beautiful, but I can't fit in it. So I wouldn't buy anything based on that chassis.
