38KV Scarab boat model?

[JETJOCK]

I am looking for a Scarab 38KV Boat model, I have a couple of the 1/36 Monogram plastic models already--I am looking for the Dumas Kit, or maybe a 55" Shockwave painted up to look like my Full Scale MV edition.

Anyone know where I could look- (I already check E/bay etc..)

There were actually two. One with the flat/straight across the windscreen and one with the Vee. Which hull do you have?

I was watching this on e-bay last week but came up short on my bid. It went for over 80.00

I had a Dumas with a weedwacker motor in it a few years ago.

Not sure I follow?

I have a Monogram that I haven't built yet, and after seeing what that one on e-bay went for I may not.

I have all three versions of the Monogram kits, the Miami Vice one always sells for "High Dollar" because of the "Miami VIce Geeks" as I call them tha tmakes them collectable.

I am trying to get a nice model of my boat to display on top the Big Screen TV.

There was one Scarab with the "V" shaped windshield and one with the straight. The Miami Vice model has the straight. Just wondering which model you need. Dumas made both. I have the V because it matches my Scorpion almost exactly.

:huh:

.................and I thought I was confused!

Straight windshield-aka 38KV scarabs have this

Cos if you need a Vice kit, I've got some. As far as the Dazzlement kit goes....build it. They only bring 15-30 on ebay. Dazzlement was modeled after a 377 (not a KV) that is still kept in Chicago to this day. Monogram has a new version of the kit that is due out next month

The Dazzlement boat pic with the V windshield is what I was talking about. I have that one with the raised hatches like the Vice with a Picco 90. Has the rails etc and looks exactly like the 39 Scorpion.

I also have a bud's Vice boat with a gas motor here I'm workin on for him.

On that , see where the two boat pics have the V windshield and the model has the flat? My Dumas model has the V.

I've got the complete Dumas kit and hardware for it. Forgot I had it until a few months ago. Don't know how I lost track of a 6' box in my train room

The boat belongs to the owners of Ateco Engines in Chicago. It has a set of 725's
