Strong 225 Buick V6, what to put it in?

[RichardSIA]

I find my self with a very strong 225 Buick V6 and no car to put it in.

I also have the flywheel and bell housing, so it will get a four or five speed trans.

Japanese bodies are out of the question, not going to happen.



I considered a Spitfire, but without a lot of work the rear is week, and all the brakes/bolt circle are small.

May have to just make a vintage open wheel Hill Climb or Indy replica.
Single seat cars are street legal in Nevada.

Really want a fairly inexpensive light open car, strong enough to handle around 175-200 HP.

Sunbeam Alpine comes to mind, what else?

If I build from scratch, what would be a decent donor suspension?
