Add a tuned-to-super-souped-up Ferrari flat-12, mate to either Getrag-made manual or paddles and paint either period-correct (Scuderia or NART colors) or modern-retro (2000-2015 Scuderia livery) and absolutely shock, smoke and awe all Caterham, Ariel and Mono owners you’ll meet.
Oh, and I also think you can get enough sheet metal or carbon fiber to turn it into a 60’s/70’s mashup (60’s but with ‘74-style high air scoop) with 2004-spec power. And with a bit more ingenuity you can add exhaust-blown double diffusers and movable control surfaces for both front and rear wings. Ground effects? Nah, that’s pushing it too far down.
Go !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for more info and specs.

Perfect engine for that car: a 3.6 liter two stroke v8 out of a an Evinrude outboard. It would be totally insane, which is perfect.

Nice, but I have a different setup in mind. Besides, that kind of engine wouldn’t cut it for what I have in mind: my fastest lap at Isle of Man, and completing 500 km at Suzuka under my own power only.

I started thinking about a build like this just a few weeks ago. Not that I could ever do it on my own, but something like this with a decent motorcycle engine would be a fair amount of fun. Pretty much just take the Light Car Company Rocket and change the design to resemble the mid-60s F1 cars.
