The distinction is Lakester vs Streamliner.The belly tank was the low-cost alternative post-war. The GM Ecotec lakester used a proprietary body.

That lowered 'equator' is something I'd emulate.
* Okay, no 'circular' cross-section.
* Is the body going to 'look' like the 2009 AST- I in side elevation view?
* If so, are the wheels that you've shown are properly-scaled to 24-inches ?, because, if so, I'll be able to scale the height of your overall height from the AST ) I bought a brand-new millimeter ruler this morning at Kroger, on sale for a buck. [hope they don't throw me out of the library].

Clarifications:
* the width will be 1/2 body height, as measured by subtracting the ground clearance from the overall height?
* ' 2-x the taper' I don't have a clue as to what that means.
* and I still need you to define what you mean by '40% truncation '
* and what goes behind the b*tt trumpet ?
