    Love these videos from time to time.
    Dont ever apologise for using what my family call "garage words" in Scotty's garage. They're in context and areused like salt and pepper to enhance the story, and really show your emotions.
    This feels like a chat with a mate in a garage.
    Shed chats.
    Finding it really interesting to 'get to know' the man we see on camera at carnage.
    The algorithm showed me your channel.
    Keep it up Scotty!

    Amazing story Scotty, the part describing your son's arrival really struck a chord with me too. I've done the 1am follow-the-ambulance-to-NICU drive myself when my son was born and it was VERY touch and go, so I totally sympathise that's for sure.
    Also another vote here for a Scotty's Campfire Stories series, I love that idea!

    Good viewing, Scotty. Was never really a Chrysler person, so had no idea you had a magazine. A real bit of history there and I’m not surprised those slick 6 packs are already gone 🔥
    I also remember a issue of SM in the 90s where they were raving about a 300hp Holden 8, so 400+ would have been nuts at the time 🔥

    Don't worry about the trash Scotty, let it all roll I say. Keep telling your story coz you share well and you make it interesting with the information you chuck in like road kill. Good to hear what goes on behind the seens 👍

    Scotty, thanks for the background video. I like the long format podcast type format, it means I can put the head phones in a either go for a walk or listen whilst I do other things, like work, with out having to look at the screen all the time. It would be great I you could do a few more and even interview/ talk shit with other like minded people. Scotty’s cars would be interesting.
    I’m one of seven boys and always joke that I should write a book called “cars my brothers have crashed”
    Keep up the good work.😊

      Sounds like a great title. I've got to say that while the video seems popular with those who have watched it, I think the length might be putting people off because it's not getting as many views. That makes me hesitant to do many like this.

    Always wondered why Scottys stopped. I just assumed that street machine took up too much time. I'm so sorry to hear of the hate. Re: Alex. I remember you putting the call out, and had I been able to, at the time, I would have happily donated.
    I'm so glad to see Scottys is back, and I look forward to seeing and hearing more of this journey going forward. Well done, mate.

      It took up a fair amount of time but yeah it was the hater that really got to me. I shot a couple episodes of me redoing the shed and never did the third one because of trolls.

    Hey Scotty, a wonderful episode. Very different to Carnage, and I loved it. You have had quite the journey. My take away is, your a proud family man that loves cars. So am I. 👍

    Wow the 90s yep I remember ,slow internet and yes I got the slick 6 mag as well as I used to play with valiants around that time. The best part of the nineties was that you could buy a valiant charger for a few hundred dollars and drive it home.

    • @blownhemi
      @blownhemi  6 місяців тому +1

      I did plenty of that. Most of my Valiants were $1000 or less

    Thanks, Scott. Great story. I didn't know before about MotorTrend and the YT $5M. I suspect that probably also included some of their other shows like Roadkill Garage and Dirt Every Day. But yeah, I imagine they cost a lot to produce. Support crews and insurance. And they probably get the shitboxes thoroughly checked over before they get anywhere near a public road.

    • @blownhemi
      @blownhemi  5 місяців тому

      Roadkill Garage came later, but I believe Dirt Every Day was probably part of the 5 million deal. I don't think anyone checks the cars before they hit the road, though. I've seen a lot of them up close and personal on one of my US trips, and they are rough as hell. They make Carnage cars look like show pieces in comparison.
