Did you ever wonder what your parents really looked and sounded like when you were young? Were they "cool"? Did they dress with style? Did they have to try to sell an overstock of 1987 Chrysler LeBarons?
For Andy Scott the answers were "Yes, Yes and Yes!"
When I stumbled upon this piece of pure 80's gold I wanted to immediately show it to all my brothers and sisters (and the entire interweb). I announced to our family during Thanksgiving to check in on Sconda Blog in the coming week for this little piece history to make it's debut. The whole table was a buzz as my Dad just smiled, blushed a bit (family trait) and immediately recalled the over order of 100 LeBerons that year that was the focus of his very first commercial.
My Dad has been writing and appearing in his own commercials for his Scott Family of Dealerships for over 20 years. I remember when I was in elementary school, listening to him read his scripts out loud from his yellow legal pad at the breakfast table.
If you want to know what your parental units were really like back in the day, go into their attic, grab that box of VHS tapes or 8mm film get it digitized asap. It's fast, cheap and makes the perfect Holiday gift.
