I know what you are saying.
I have been trying to get a render of a XY or XA Series redone to modern but have failed so far.
I want to achieve in the same way that Dodge did with the Challenger kind of thing.
As everyone who has had a go above have found, it is a huge rabbit hole to jump into as there is a gazillion ways to to manipulate what it draws.
Another technique is to import as photo as a reference.
I imported a street machine magazine photo of a purple XA Coupe and asked for a modern version based on modern ford dna ect ect and got this :(
Maybe a little too far into the future....
