I saw some (real) Lotus at a meet once, that I could stick my fingers half-way into the door gap.

I'd consider the manufacturer before the clonee. These kits from the 70s need a lot of detail work; the whole interior for instance. And 10 pounds of steel for the door hinges.

The Fad T has been around forever, this one was a short-course racer in LA in 1971.
