I want to build up a rack of various modules

pass them all through. all the modules will be racked up I simply need
bussing, auxes, faders master section etc.etc. etc.

You might look at the Millenia Mixing Suite. It's just made to order
for a project like yours. I hope you're spending tons of money on the
input modules though, because otherwise you'll be shocked a the cost
of "just a line level mixer" with all the features.

Maybe Manley could build me an analog unit?

I'm sure they would. I'm curious as to what your concept of budget is.
I'm not looking for an RFQ here, just want some perspective on your
understanding, beyond some very good brand names, of what you're
planning to do.

Well, I've owned all of the modules (except the Focusrites and ssl's)
before and really liked them all, but each one did its own thing
different of course, So I thought "hell, just build a console of all
of my favorite modules." so I could mix and match so to speak. I
figure about $25,000 on the modules at prices I would buy them for and
maybe $5000-10,0000 for the "mixer". Really the mixer isn't much more
than a line mixer with say 4 mono and 1 stereo aux send(for foldback)
and a talkback/control room section.
I like the concept of what the old Trident guy was doing with the
modular console, If I could find one.
I feel for me, that this set-up offers me the best approach to what
I've come to like about each modules sound and the ability to intermix
them with ease. I'm interested in other peoples ideas on this as well,
if anybody out there is trying this sort of thing?
