I hope there's a few, I need a good beer right now!
Little doubt here.
WRC cars are production based cars right?
Nascar/ USA's SuperTrucks, Sprintcars, etc... are big rollcages with pannels, right?
Are These rollcage+pannels cars something that could do rally? Cuz it looks cheaper. IDK if it could be lighter.. But anyway. Is it possible? Or its not safe enough for possible crashes and flips ?
No to most of those.
In the states a good buddy of mine who has raced Rally and RallyCross is now racing a Polaris RZR 1000 Turbo in the regional California rally series. These little open wheel cars are amazing, handle well and need little maintenance. He spent roughly 25k on his and has won overall in one of the rallies and was leading overall in the second rally until he broke his steering.
Technically space frame-based cars can easily do rallying and they can do that better than the actual rallycars based on stock bodyshells. That's only a limitation, not an advantage.
Most of the T1 class vehicles in the Rally Raid scene are tubular frame vehicles with coverings.

Was the 31 years old picture meant as an argument against space frame-based cars?
Just replying the question. It has been done, it was expensive and it was not safe. But yeah, maybe they could do it better today? Not sure if it would be cheaper.
If you're interested in seeing how different Rally Finland stages look like, I set up this list of onboard videos found from youtube, for different stages, running directions and versions. There's also the second tab for videos from national rallies which include roads used in Rally Finland, with a map link as well.
