My suggestion:
Work with Ron and pay him to help you with the design phase. I recall him telling me that he offers design services which can range from individual components to the entire car, at what I considered to be very reasonable prices. He can spec out the pieces to pull together the entire system to give you what you want, then you can take that information and build it yourself. Sort of the best of all worlds if you ask me (design knowledge from someone who has infinitely more knowledge than any of us will ever amass, and the satisfaction of taking that knowledge to build something with your own hands).
Best of luck!
