Sorry for spamming with another comment but chevy corvairs are still very inexpensive in the states and are rear engine air cooled six cyl boxer equipped like a porsche. Maybe some prototype body for a corvair donor??
This is really neat. Any plans to reproduce Grand Sport Bodies?

I would love that - I could imagine running a grand sport for a weekend toy!
truth be told I can’t see us doing that... we are tying to start small and are limiting it to C2 coupes across each iteration of 63/4/5/6/7. We want to do it right and ensure the quality is great. We have first hand experience of some of the mass produced panels marketed by the big companies and fitment has been really poor - that’s not a universal comment but for a small family business we can’t afford to disappoint.
we don’t make the fiberglass, we outsource it to one of the Uk’s leading specialist. We are hobbyists and own and build race cars for fun. We are not here to get rich, simply to offer a good service and fund the building of more fun race cars!
what we do have are moulds to a C1. I have a 58 in the UK and my dad keeps his 59 in the US. I gather that the wheelbase is different but putting a C1 onto a C3 frame is not out of the question...
here are some pics of our race cars 😀 the black and flames car is the same Matt black car, different paint job after I smashed it to pieces at Sebring!!
C1 on a C3 chassis is an awesome idea. I would bet you could sell a bunch of those. 👍
While no one would ruin a perfectly good C3 of any year to create a pseudo C2, it is a great idea for a wrecked C3 to make it's way back into the world.
