Lone Star Muscle Cars has for sale this beautiful treasure of American automotive history-- a 1954 "Corvette Dream Car". Harley J. Earl a guru at GM envisioned an American sports car that could compete with the import sports cars of the day. Not long after convincing GM executives that they needed to build an inexpensive sports car the "Corvette Dream Car" debuted at the New York City Motorama in January 1953. The two-seat roadster was an immediate hit. In the crowd was a Russian-born engineer named Zora Arkus-Duntov. The car inspired him to write a letter to Ed Cole chief engineer of the Chevrolet Division at GM. A year later Arkus-Duntov was working at GM and as the saying goes the rest is history.1954 Corvette production moved to St. Louis Missouri where it would stay for another 27 years.
