The junk formula name was given by the old timers who had purpose built racing cars. They called the new production based cars "junk". It had a different name officially but was commonly known as the junk formula.

These cars were indeed based on production cars or at least engines. In some cases the chassis were modified production type, in other cases specially constructed.

You should discuss your project with Turbopackman or look up his projects, I believe he is working along similar lines.
