Re: A few cars from Barrett Jackson-Scottsdale
 

I've heard that Scotty was done personally by someone in the GM design division on his own. He has been present with the car at various shows and has talked about his work on the car back in the 50's, Scott was the last name of the engineer. If this is a made up car, they have done lots of fabrication of the story, and I mean lots of fabrication. Are you sure this is a made up car? I know that they had it for sale for a long time in its unrestored condition. I am not affiliated with the dealership in Ohio, but from all I have read and seen of the car, I've always felt it was legitimate.

Norm...Is that the car that an engineer took apart and put in crates? I heard a story like that a while back. He then had the crates shipped to his home? The car was supposed to be destroyed, but he didn't have the heart to see it crushed?

Wow! This description of "Scotty" is news to me. The story I heard was completely contradicting of the truth. Anyone have a link? I would like to get my facts straight.

Xplantdad,

------I can tell you that the LS6 is for real as I am the present and 4th owner and have the build sheet here beside me. It was a Wisconsin car new and heavily raced the first few years in stock class. Original owner is dead, but I have talked to his Mom. Then put away and later bought by second owner and re-done as show car. Doug Marion did an article on it for the July issue of Super Chevy in 1987. Sometime after that the car was again stored in semi-bad circumstances. Restored as correctly as I can now it will be at B/J in January..................Bill S
