Scotty Cannon's GTO

May be old news to some, but it seemed kinda weird to me to see Scotty in a new GTO at Milan, I'm just used to seeing him in an older body style in Pro Mod, except I guess the year he ran the funny car body, but that was unique and contraversal all on it's own..............Perry Jr.

If I'm not mistaken he's been in it all season - at least since San Antonio - where his #1 ride was trashed

Hey Gerry, that photo is my favorite of the photos I have of the "Super Camaro".

I was at Milan Saturday, hung with my two buddies back and fourth, one being Joe Ballog, he has a top sportsman Beretta, the other being Rick and Rob Bruce, with the "Zombie" funny car.

Have you found any other photos from Detroit in 1970?

Do you know anyone else that was taking photos then? Looking forward to hooking up with you at one of these events........Perry Jr.

It's the same car. Scott had a crash in San Antonio, they went straight to Vanishing Point & in 7 days had the car back home finishing it up...

The new IHRA rule for '08 is no Pro Stock legal bodies allowed in Pro Mod.. But I'm not so sure that ruling is gonna stick....

Thanks everyone, I didn't realize it was his son, so does he run a car now, or what's up with Scotty?.....................Perry Jr.

Gto

Better enjoy the GTO while you can because the IHRA has opted to disallow body styles legal for Pro Stock in 2008. Guess what? Scotty's building a 1963 Corvette. Just what the class needs...another one.
