Basically any Lotus Seven clone that you build yourself

They damn near recreated the half life jeep, that's madman tier right there.

The HL2 Jeep has no drivetrain.

It was also propane powered or some shit. If they can't count to three do you expect them to understand how vehicles work?

locost/haynes etc..

>buy rusty MX5/Ford Sierra/BMW 318ti etc
>order kit car frame and other bits
>fit drivetrain, suspension parts from donor car to frame
>add bodywork (optional)

The amount of money this is going to cost is directly proportional to how much of the fabrication you can do yourself and how many cars you can use from the donor car.

PARTS you can use of the donor car.

Why not just get a bike?

If you're good with fabrication then I'd say build a bike engined 3 wheeler like pic related. This'll probably cost you less than $7k for everything done well and using chromoly instead of just regular steel. Provided you can do all of the fab work.

The concept art is all fine, it's whoever did the 3D modeling that fucked it all up.

For more fun, look at the Charger in Episode 2 and try to figure out how the fuck the engine connects to anything, 'cause it doesn't.

May as well post an obtainable dream because I'm probably never going to do it.

73 or older MG midget. They weigh 1600 pounds stock, which leaves a lot of room for upgrading and staying under a ton.
As far as power goes, I was torn between a fairly heavy 60° V6 swap, or tucking ej20 turbo paired with a FWD transmission underneath the car in the rear.
Never bothered verifying a subaru MR would fit, but they're only 18 inches from front of engine to center of axle.

Obviously this route would require tons of fabrication, but the car even stock can be enjoyable.

The Polaris Slingshot starts at around $20k. You could always buy a salvage Corvette and turn it into a Vettekart.

You can pick up a shit tier model for £2k and import it. Or you can buy a late model cooper for £3k

Exocet miatas are an option if you don't mind putting in the work
