Like the X1/9 is the mid-engined 128 derivative, the Scorpion could be considered the mid-engined 124, a successor to the 124 sport coupe line.
Oh My God. The dash is truly an eyesore! Is this for real, or someones abortion? The ad for this one didn't say custom dash....

Looks like the same floor pan - & suspension - but the car is larger, no?

Different floor pan; 6” wider. Essentially the same front and rear suspension pieces. First production car Pininfarina designed and built from the ground up.
Is the red leather one yours? Looks so much better with this dash trim
Well Bob, I am thinking you might have had to wash it too. Just comparing the photos.Basically the only thing the car needed was a brake overall since all 4 wheels were locked up from sitting.
Am I missing something? What is making this non-running Scorpion so desirable? Even if the pictures were current, the car still looks like it would needs a lot of work.
I guess I'm glad I bought mine when I did. The first picture was when I arrived at a storage locker in Ohio to look at the car. The second picture is the car today. Basically the only thing the car needed was a brake overall since all 4 wheels were locked up from sitting.

That sounds pretty nice, usually V6s don't have a great exhaust note.
When I had my Scorpion my dream was to use a Volkswagen VR6....after all it was Lancia who pioneered the narrow angle vee topped with a single cylinder head anyway. Plus a 12v VR6 with a proper exhaust on it sounds wonderful.
