Without knowing dimensions or requirements, I'd say a Cobra ladder frame would probably sit underneath it okay.

Possibly even a Nemesis (spaceframe?)...

Why bother - There are some realy desireable cars out there - Ones that actually look good ! otherwise it would bave to be a backbone chassis with perimiter rails .

Agree with Aussie Dave - backbone chassis with perimeter rails, as used by TVR.

Of course you're hoping to find an existing chassis you can use then you'll have to sort out the dimensions and check the sizes of what's out there.

Don't know whether you've got a body or what

are you looking for a complete donor vehicle etc

There are some older TVR chimaeras coming up with body damage for as little as £3,000, that would work OK

Otherwise as everyone else has said a high end backbone will do the trick
