The chassis from this car come from an Fiat-Topolino, made from 1938-54.

That's one of the sources, and an very important one. The engine is believed to have been a Crosley unit. The major body parts came from a Nash, Packard and Studebaker, which gives some insight to the origin of the car's name.  ;)
