You might contact one of the guys at Backdraft, I know at one time they had thoughts of developing a Coupe on the BMW platform. AC and PS are simple and no brainers. You might check with Richard at Northracecars.com for a custom AC unit for the coupe.

Streetching the chassis from 90"wb to say 95" or so is pretty common as is making it a little bit wider. Several have done that and with great success. However, your double bubble is interesting and I am anxious to see how you incorporate that into the design.

Good Luck and post lots of pictures.
