Deronda G400
It seems that open wheel street-legal cars are all the rage these days for the true automotive purists. The latest entry in this niche segment is this beautiful machine, the Deronda G400. Originally developed in the UK, the G400 features a mid-mounted Corvette V8 in a tubular steel chassis, cloaked in beautiful bodywork. When originally designed, it used an Audi four cylinder powerplant, but when US based Autosport Development obtained licensing rights to it, they reengineered it to accept the large Chevy V8 (which led to a longer wheelbase, modified suspension, and larger brakes). Needless to say, the result is blindingly fast! Read more about it over at Autoblog.
