https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...7e25faafa5.jpg
10k hasnt run in 10 yrs. And 338 original hours. No soft spots. Interior is rough, my merc man told me 2k to rebuild carbs and get batteries. |
Nice! You got a classic!!
|
And to think people spend 20 times as much for a 30 ft CC today. Great find.enjoy!
|
Congrats! Now you have to get going with some work, get her on the water and share a few pics. Dont think any CC's have made 'classic' or 'cult' status but those Scarabs are certainly well liked. :) RR |
Nice find! Show some more pictures!!! |
Did you buy it or just find it?
|
Pick it up tomorrow
|
Congrats! |
I saw that boat pop up. Please please please keep us updated on what all it takes to get going and what all needs to be repaired. Its either going to be a great buy or a total huge project and I'm curious as to which.
|
Cool with no ttop
|
I will stay posted, its going straight to my mercury man. Were gonna be 2k right off the bat. If everything the owner says is yrue I think its gonna be a buy. But............its got a soft spot in the floor, in a place not typical on these boats. So that proba ly the beginning of the end.

At this point I think they are all soft in the floors. Scarab in all their infinite wisdom did not seal any of the screws in the deck. I sealed all of mine this past weekend. PIA.

Bringing her home. Owner had her for 25 yrs, he was a lil upset when I pulled away. This thing is like a time capsule. |

Lookin good! Just curious, are you going to put a t-top back on? When I had a cc I ripped the top off in favour of an arch and bimini. A lot more open feel and more shade, maybe not so good if you're doing a lot of fishing. RR https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...64d4cdcf58.jpg |

Great looking original graphics! The trailer alone has to be worth 4k-5k. It is always satisfying when you know you can recoup your investment in parts value alone.
|
Yea, I also got 2 new props in the box. The ones on the motor are like new, still have really good cupping. Bad news in the graphics, theyre cracked, faded, and coming off....

What are you planning to for graphics? I wonder if they can be reproduced. I like the original look, nice color accent without being garish.
