Sleeper fast build

I’ve realized I don’t like drop bars and am never going to enjoy road bikes, so I’m selling mine. I have a few mountain bikes and slow cruisers but I want to build a sleeper fast commuter rig from a 90s MTB or 700c hybrid. Something that’ll get me to work quick but is actually fun to ride. Thinking a small front rack to strap a backpack.

Any recommendations on what frame to start with? What upgrades and modifications would you do for this build? Thanks and appreciate all the help!

Anyone have one of these? Looking to build a “sleeper fast” commuting rig. Flat or alt bars, not drop bars. 38-40 tires. Wondering if I should jump on this or wait for a better frame to come up. I’m in no rush. Thanks for any input!
