The nice thing about today is there is software that will produce a 3D model from a few 2D pictures. One could recreate and 3D print the Volkhart-Sagitta to within a few tens of microns accuracy.

Oh, and this: 
Karmann Ghia Station Wagon in France - Fake Volkswagen |
With Scaled Composites 5-axis router,a full-scale rendering could be done from which tooling could be generated for wet layups or a chopper gun.
If you shaved the chrome and integrated the bumpers
n stuff,the Volkhart- would appear to most as quite modern.And with seating for 4,more 'practical' than Porsche's speedy little 2-seater of '39.
