I love the shape. Looks like it would work great for a motorcycle based approach with tandem seating.One would have to handle the canopy size and rear visibility issues very carefully. Too much greenhouse and you get a sauna. The cg issue would need careful attention. A motocycle engine is fairly low, but passengers would be a cg challenge, maybe one high and one low?
I think I know how to do the front suspension. Ever heard of the Morgan sliding pillar?
