I think this is probably one of the most beautiful cars that never got built

I want to make one and have no idea where to begin. I'm thinking I could use the back half of a 54 or 55 corvette

but I'm at a loss as to what I could use to finish it

Anybody got any ideas ?

That would be a great project .. those early Harley earl concepts are beautiful. I don't see how you CAN'T use an early 'Vette as the donor. The Wildcat debuted the same year as the Corvette concepts.

Use a '53 Corvette for the rear, re-shaping the tail lights of course. Get yourself a '51 or '53 chevy for the hood bulge and fab the front fenders out of sheet stock. Gather as many ref photos as you can for the dash and interior. What you can't actually document simply swag it.
