Am I right, or am I right? Purportedly, the original (as appeared in Design for Dreaming) was last seen somewhere around 1962 and might have once been in New Jersey.
Feast your eyes...

Everything except the tiny fins is amazing.

Hahaha on the car.
That looks perfect now. I think it would even look great with no fins :)

True story: chrome or rubber ogive shapes on car bumpers are referred to as “ Dagmar s”.
Another interesting fact: the split window on the Golden Rocket concept eventually led to the famous split window on the first year C2 Corvette.
I think if one were to build a modern Golden Rocket, the best plan would probably be to lay up the fiberglass molds for the body-work, use portions of C1 Corvette and ‘57 Olds interior pieces (all available repro), and to use a turn-key C1 Corvette chassis, as is available new from several distributors. The short wheelbase, design for fiberglass body, and the rest make it a natural choice, and with info missing on what was under the concept, I suspect it might have been a C1 originally.
