Be ready to open your wallet. This has already been done for years, to an extent, just before you had to have a "donor VIN tag"

wink wink...

Looking forward to the 2027 “Pontiacs,” recreating wide-track looks faithfully at prices a normal human can afford. By then, the law could be tweaked to get volume up. I agree that lots of 325 will mean more toys for the rich boys (and girls). Imagine a ’67 Firebird or GTO replica for $40,000….options would, now as then, cost more.

This won't happen. There are already companies using the dynacorn bodies to do full Mustangs... and the price tag is 100K and up. 40K is a pipe dream.
The body panels alone are around $15-20K. Brand new drivetrain and computer? Likely 20-25K+. Assembly, bodywork, and paint? Another 15K+ Frame/Suspension 5K+ Wheels/tires 3K. Interior? 5-10K with assembly... then ALL the little odds and ends - bumpers, glass, rubber...
Before you know it you have an 80-100K "Brand new" old car.
All that said... I would love a brand new 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 drop top (well, it would have to have a modern LS per the law, but I want it to look like a 400).
