I know how much that can hurt. I once saw an advert for a jaguar XK140 coupe.

When I got there car was great. knocked on the door and the guy told me he had sold it late the previous evening. Those were lovely cars and that was the closest I ever got to owning one.
In this case I suggest you buy a European 500cc. It wouldn't be difficult to convert it to 350cc if you want to. Do not raise the gearing, they run much better on the standard ratios.
