Well I love fiberglass cars because most of them are kits but some of them are concepts or production cars big companies don't want people to know about, 2 of them have recently hit my email inbox, The 1959 Scaglietti Corvette and the 1954 Corvette Nomad.

Scaglietti - “Corvette Italia”

Custom aluminum coach work hand crafted by Italian styling studio Scaglietti in Modeno, Italy. The cars were based on the bodies the Italian designer had done for the Ferrari's long hooded Tour de France GT model.
The vision of Gary Laughlin, a Texas oil-developer and amateur racer, in collaboration with Jim Hall and Carroll Shelby. Gary funded the project to create these lightweight racers based on the 1959 Corvette running gear.
None of the three cars was ever raced and Shelby later took his idea from Italy and Chevy to England and Ford.
Specifications
Two of the three cars built had automatics and one a four-speed before Chevrolet shut down the project. They cited their reluctance to interrupt the assembly line to produce additional chassis without complete bodies as requested by Laughlin.
The chassis is a standard 1959 Corvette and is completely stock. Excluding the fuel cell, the rest of the chassis, including the entire braking and suspension systems, are all factory components, just like you'll find on any other Corvette of that year.
The 283-cubic-inch V8 puts out 315 horsepower and features the Rochester fuel injection system. The gearbox is a 4-speed Borg-Warner T-10 with a Hurst shifter and linkage.
Oh what bodies!
Built in the classic Italian tradition, all three Corvettes had aluminum-paneled bodies that were individually handmade, using the time-honored method of hammers and dollies.
Gauging the shape strictly by eye, the Italian artisans slowly sculpted every panel by pounding flat sheets of aluminum with large wooden mallets. Sandbags and tree stumps were the surfaces that the aluminum was hammered against.
The end result, besides being bestowed with a uniquely shaped body, is a '59 Corvette that is 400 pounds lighter in weight.

now the 1954 Corvette Nomad website is in all pics so theres no text to copy but heres the link for anyone else interesed: http://superior54.com/

My favorite stillborn Vette is the CERV III.Midengined,aerodynamic,and highly futuristic at the time,it would of been the American Lamborghini,but it would of been expensive and and probably would have reverted back to FR format for the C6 gen or even killed the name off.Still,the possibility of seeing C6 performance numbers back in the early 90s would of been something,eh?

the second car is an old nomad

ive seen that red vette concept many times pictured with it on supercars.net or something similiar to that website, but it would be cool for a mr corvette

and @ dijim it is a corvette nomad that was never put into production untiol this year a man got gm rights to buil da limited production i want one so badly but its 80k

the nomad would have been the 57 nomad cause that corvette came out in 57 but they had one the looked like the bel air

GM did a lot of messing around with their cars back in the 50's, 60's, and 70's, more like one model ideas that they felt like doing to try out or to see if it is possible but it can also be to try out new devices or improvements

they designed many many of the car and kind of a stupid idea from gm to decide not to put into produciton

still wish i could find that 54 nomad wagon vette from the motorama but its gone
