1936 STOUT SCARAB










 1936 STOUT SCARAB

The 1936 Stout Scarab is one of the oddest looking cars that you will ever see. The auto was designed by William Stout who had been employed as an aviation engineer focused on aircraft before transitioning to the automobile industry. Drawing on Stout Air Lines success with first introducing luxury and leisure into transportation through the introduction of in-flight meals and flight attendants into flights, Stout looked to mimic these successes in the auto industry. The Stout Scarab was designed to be a diner car on wheels driven by a powerful V-8 located in the rear of the stretched auto body. Ultimately the Scarab never took off in popularity due to its high cost, and only 10 were produced in the lifetime of the brand.
