Building a racing Saab -where do I start

I have just decided that I was going to build a Saab for track racing and am wondering where to start.
The classic 900 is lighter but I understand that its transmission tends to dislike substantial increases in power and torque. The 9000 therefore seems like a good candidate. I didn't immediately see any reason to go for a 900 NG or a 9-3.
Any suggestions as to what car to start with would be very welcome.
I'm obviously going to do the obvious as in stripping it to lighten it, install a roll cage, buckets seats etc., do some work on the supension and tune the engine.
There again, any suggestions or pointers would be great.
Thanks !
