George,
The last Stout Scarab (#9) was was also the world's first all fibreglas car.
(body & chassis) to it, It was built by OwensCorning Fibreglas right here
in Newark,Ohio. It spent a winter in my garage after I found it in a
warehouse in Detroit and got it promoted for the technology Museum
here in town. Unfortunately, no one but me ever paid any attention to it,
so it went back to the Detroit Historical Society. It's now located in
the Gilmore Museum in Hickory Corners, Michigan., I have a flock of info on
Stout and his cars and, obviously, can talk all day about them.

Gary,
I see a new "T" shirt in the making "I can't stop talking about my Stout Scarab!"
Make sure you show this to Kara, I KNOW she'll get a laugh out of it!
