Yes sir. A similar frame to that with a lower top, slightly more aerodynamic shape, modified to run a regular 4WD drivetrain but backwards for rear engine mount + a TDI.

I think I could build the frame around the drivetrain then strip everything and stretch fleece over the frame then fiberglass over it. I could use foam pipe insulation when molding the body to keep a little space to make it removeable then build some body mounts when the body shell is complete. I could use coroplast for the belly pan and have a cutout for the transfer case to protrude out of (the transfer case I'm using angles down and to the right (left in rear engine).
