Besides being easier, I would expect it would be less costly to build a slower/lower class car in many instances. Breakage in drivetrain less frequent as well.

Build an early Pontiac so I can build your engine. My 1962 Grand Prix is coming along nicely. www.PontiacEngines.com

How cool would it be to build a clone of the Ray Allen / Truppi-Kling / Briggs Chevrolet '70 Chevelle SS LS6 Convertible for A or B/SA? OMG!

^^^^^^^ I'll add buy or build the car you want to have, not a compromise that you will loose interest in.
