Lance Reventlow -- Scarab-Chevrolet

Reventlow was entered in this Scarab, Chassis 001, the first of the three cars to be built.  He damaged the front end in a practice session for the Times GP and moved himself into the #3 car, "bumping" scheduled driver Bruce Kessler from his ride.

Note left hand drive.  At the end of the 1958 season, Reventlow sold the two right hand drive cars, and kept this one as his street machine.  In 1982, Don Orosco bought this car from Reventlow's widow and raced it in historic events for years.  It's now owned and raced by Rob Walton.
