I think the world has moved on. Yes, it was glorious when Alexander Hesketh could buy a DFV and a Hewland 'box, then hire Postlethwaite to clothe them, but F1 cars are so much more complicated and sophisticated these days. Car manufacturers would still, for honour's sake, have to build their own car, but teams like Sauber and Williams would be looking at forking out for the latest Red Bull or Ferrari.
