Dan,
Sounds like a vintage Ferrari restoration, starting with some early suspension parts and ending up with a fully reconstructed vehicle complete with a Le Mans pedigree.
All kidding aside: if you are going to do an M10 replica, I'd suggest to make a
3 inch Ram SP. Basically the same, but with some differences to make it stand out from the crowd!
Just my EUR 0,02 worth,
Hanno
