The Sammio's a great looking car and it would be good to see something like this built on an MX5, Z3 or whatever.

Here's a far more reasonably priced Z8 conversion - only £1800 pounds or so. I should imagine shipping will add a couple more hundred though

As a conceptual sketch, I think your design is excellent - and I'll buy one if you ever build it exactly like this with the usual caveat about price.

I can see a few issues around the size of...

That's very nice. I wonder what it would look like on 17 or 18" wheels rather than the 24s that you've drawn?

I didn't mean to upset you and have already stated how much I like what you're doing with this.

I appreciate the front end will possibly use the z300 front end as a starting point, but with the design changes you're requesting, how would z300 7" headlamps and cowls match your design thoughts...
