You can build an entire first generation Camaro or Mustang with nothing but a Vin plate, title, and the catalog.
And yet... there is not race series using Camaro and Mustang reproduction bodies (that I know of).
Nascar wants to boost it's interest? They might look in that direction.
I see them racing in Australia... are those vintage shells or reproduction?
Do not I REPEAT DO NOT google Dynacorn bodies.

I've said exactly this for years.
The availability of repro bodies is screaming for someone to make a racing series for them. What TA2 should be.

Cars built for the UTCC on that idea might be really neat... Find someone like Wilwood to supply the brakes, Speedway for the roll cages, crate motors with spec intake manifolds/carbs... that sounds like a three-pitcher discussion for napkin documentation right there!
32 Deuce. I would venture there are thousands built without a single Ford part.

There may be more of these on the road now than Henry built in the first place.
First gen Camaro and Mustang.
Slowly getting B and E body Mopars there.
Tri-5 Chevys.
Model A and 32-34 Fords.
A-body GM besides frames.

Detroit something or other makes front subframes for Camaros that use what looks like a complete C5 front suspension/brakes.

IIRC you can get most of a new A body frame, now.
