We have ERA with fiberglass in kit, roller and turnkey on top of the fibreglass game, and there is nothing linking the gap between them and the Kirkham.

Why not make a kit with as close to 100% accuracy as possible - but deliver an alu body on top of it? Since Kirkham only makes complete rollers only needing engine and trans, someone should cover the kit market with that quality and originality as a goal.

I think this is the way to go. I need some wheelbase information and see if there are some modifications to do. The goal for now is getting FFR cars rebodied. This can be made with original body shapes too....at the end its the same effort.
