Nolan had a silver gray SAS Speedster mid-engine with automatic transmission and Hoss had a red SAS with standard manual transmission.  Both were regulars at Carlisle.  You won't be using a VW pan so a custom chassis is definitely required.  Hence the use of the rest of the Subarus drive train. The rear emergency seat area disappears but the engine is low so still room on top of the engine cover if needed (just not for people)

I will have to look up Nolan and Haas here to see if they report on how they like their mid-engine.  If I was to have a car built, rather than buying a used one, my preference would be mid engine, but I don't think I would take a chance on a deposit to any manufacturer with a reputation for not delivering.
