I'm not familiar with Shapecraft supplying noses separately, but they did a nice fastback coupe conversion on the Elan. Tony Thompson has one that he races in Historic events. When I visited his shop a couple of years ago, he had two Shapecrafts in the shop, and the owner of a third was visiting to verify some details for his restoration. I think there are photos on the Yahoo Elan goup site.
