Okay, I was looking at some pics on the web and found these. I know that what we are looking for isn't going to be this. And what I want is evolving.

Open frame? maybe? Open frame with removable, individual body parts? Think racing go cart with separate body panels that actually look good together as a car?

Just ideas... Someone said something about separate fenders. Off road trucks use them to tear off. We want something that would look better than that. But, if a fender gets dinged in a parking lot or, different fenders or a nose for downforce might be required for parking lot, track day runs then a couple of fasteners and presto you have what you need.

just get that rear end a bit lower so it doesn't look so heavy towards the back end...and maybe make the roof line a bit flatter too (I like the topless pic)

Different strokes for different folks, but if I can see the frame it's a dealbreaker. I'm not here for another track car.

If you are referring to me (still confused by the arrow), I apologize Nelff, I did not intend to do so. I agree with you and that is what I was thinking as well. I didn't recognize your name, so I thought I would share my design here rather than cross post a link (faux pas in other forums) and get your opinion.
