Cool - car - what it a factory car or did your Dad do the conversion?  Ditto - what are you asking for it?

Cool car.  I'd be begging Dad to pass it down. :D

The wheels look just like my Konig Rewinds?

Do you have any documentation?  A build sheet?  Provenance?  1/4 mile time slips?  Would make it more interesting.

Thanks for all of the interest!

 

My Dad bought the car in 1981 pretty much as it sits (aside from routine maintenance).  My Dad added adjustable coil-over suspension, he also upgraded the front brakes to vented rotors with 4-piston calipers.   The gentleman he bought the car from (in Arkansas) said he ordered the car directly from Brian Morrow, but my Dad did not get any documentation when he bought the car.  

Rare rust free example.  The original Magnesium Cromodora wheelset is included.

The car has been truly babied, so no 1/4 times.  

Asking price is $43K. 

 

My Dad is more than happy to "talk shop" with interested people, just send me a note with contact info.

 

Nice car!  I loved the Scarab as a kid...  this one looks very clean.  Documentation will help sell it at that price.  Can your dad get any docs for it?

Check out our Scarab forum for more information about the conversion and any additional details you may need with the listing.

Would be much easier if you just posted what you'd like to get sir.

I've always found it better that unless someone asks for my opinion, I just keep it to myself.

He only has two posts.  And I think his avatar is a Porsche.  Maybe he was being ironic.
