Is it the Bosley MkII Interstate, based on a Corvette SR-2? If so, it was the work of talented Ohio specials builder Richard Bosley and was completed circa 1966. His first car, the Mk1, has done the rounds in many mags including Classic & Sports Car and is on display in the Petersen Collection in LA.

Yes, it's the Bosley Interstate. Not much is known about the whereabouts of this car. The more I was happy to find a photo and not only a rendering a few weeks ago.
Well done!

Just followed the Hemmings link this morning.
It perhaps isn't the prettiest car ever made, but I like the story and looking forward to its restoration.
