I'd say take a Metro engine, tuned for torque at low revs, gear it tall, and build a rear engine/rear drive car similar to a VW 1L (earlier model).
You'd have the benefit of a car tranny that can be shifted into neutral from any gear so you P&G and EOC would. (Motorcycle transmissions don't like to go from top gear down to neutral at 50mph)
Have it weight 1200lbs or less and a .15 cd should be pretty good.
If I was building a one off car, I'd copy the 1L! (except for engine of course)
