Saw McMartin take the period version of this thing around the isalnd in 1 min 43. 1300cc donk; sounds like a dragon snarling. I reckon this one would qualify as a streetfighter too.

Here ya go - http://www.irvingvincent.com/

Irving Vincent have been making them for some time now but there's a reason why you haven't seen any around - they're friggin expensive!
All hand cut gears etc.
Made from better alloys and steel than the original.

Doing some more reading, turns out that McMartin's bike is a bloody 1600cc monster, and it's run 1 min 40 flat in practice at the island... crazy.

thats pure horn material - does that qualify as retro-tech or old school...
