Cal:
Ashton also told me that they had made these amazing Scarabs, but had no pictures. I thought that he mentioned something about working for or with Count Dickie, Lance's brother. I really have to scratch my head on the "no pictures" part of the story. Otherwise, he sounds very credible. But I would have trouble parting with +/- $100k without pictures of the completed cars. Although the Scarabs are my absolute favorite (David Kirkham and Chuck Beck, are you listening), I originally approached Fine Sports Cars based on their ad in Autoweek about their repro Aston Martin DBR 2. However, the price of a donor DB 4-6 really put the cost of a repro DBR2 in the stratosphere. Then I asked about a Scarab and he said that they made those too. Wouldn't you know it that several issues later, the Autoweek ad also mentioned repro Scarabs.
