Well.... do something about it. Get the plans, photos and such, and
present them to a suitable manufacturer. One problem I see is that
it seems you are looking for a mass-production company - I don't see
that happening. BUT, if you were to take the information to a resin
kit manufacturer and if you did a little homework ahead of time to
see if you could find one version that also used parts from another
car (such as an underframe from a box car or something else shared)
it would be that much more likely to happen.
Stock cars are notoriously a b*ith to do because of the openings -
butt, not impossible, and some fine ones have come out - I happen to
know someone who is looking for a mid-western project of a car sort
of like this. Again, it helps if *you* do the homework. But, I
would not expect a $10 shake-the-box kit.
