Early Kei class cars are around the 500kg mark, come with featherweight suspension, solid discs, occasionally 10" (but usually 12") wheels and 155mm tyres. They get 5l/100km on the highway from carby engines doing a squillion revs with un-aerodynamic bodies...
I imagine you could cut the front off one of those (use the sub-600cc engine) and make a lightweight aero tub/rear end for it. If you are lucky you can find taller gearsets and efi equipment in other cars (i.e. Suzuki SS40T mighty boy, 550cc F5A engine, 5500rpm @ 100kph, SS80V Alto, 800cc F8B engine, 4000rpm @ 100kph same gearbox casing, later F8B's are fuel injected and the manifolds can be retrofitted)
