I could live with the crate motor, but the modern interior is a no go. For me, I want the look of the classic, interior and exterior of the classic, but with reliability and a bit of safety (better brakes and tires). I'm thinking more about old 60s American iron. Something like one of your classic VW or the micro-car would probably be different. About the only interior upgrades that I could see would be things like custom upgraded period-type upholstery (assuming we're talking about a cheap Chevy that came with basic vinyl).
