1980 Wellcraft Scarab 377 twin turbo
Wellcraft Scarab KV and 377 magazine articles

I ran across a ebay ad that listed a article from Road and Track from 1989 called Splash and Dash - Wellcraft 38 Scarad vs Corvette...Comparison Test

Does any have it?

Can people list other magazines that have writen about the Scarab 377/ 38 KV

CORRECT SIR!


I bought the magazine off E/Bay and just got it in the mail. It compares the Corvette to the Scarab (38 EXCEL and not a KV) I knew that was too good to be true since I have a Vette and a 38KV.

If anyone wants the Magazine (Mint condition with a ZR-1 Poster) I will trade for ANY 38KV info/sales/ ads etc....

and powered with 2X420´s found it actually quite underpowered already back then.
But thenagain I´ve never been a fan of the Excel 38´s... the 28 yes but the build quality on them is what it is.
