1958 Scarab Roadster:

This car is SCARB continuation number 12 after the original four cars built by Reventlow Racing from 1958 to 1060. They were hand built by Troutman and Barnes and other talented individuals in Reventlow Racing Shop in Southern California. The Scarabs have raced all over the world and with a small block Chevrolet motor they were a terror of the sports car tracks of the world. The body is made of aluminum nestling on a tube frame with a 4 speed transmission, quick change rear diff and can be built either right or left hand drive. These cars are being built at Scarab Motorsports in Shawnee Mission, Kansas in the USA.
