In a backstreet Monte Carlo garage, driver-owner-constructor Lance Reventlow helps prepare his Scarab car for the 1960 Grand Prix. A small team is gathered around the open-wheel racer, its engine exposed with multiple intake trumpets. While one mechanic is bent deep into the bay, another stands over the vehicle with a hand to his head in a gesture of thought. The cluttered workshop, with its shelves of cans and stacked tires, reveals the hands-on nature of the era’s privateer racing efforts.
