The story of the Scat is not entirely known. Early brochures claim the vehicle was manufactured by Whitman & Robinson, Inc. of Weedsport, New York. Later brochures claim it was manufactured by Pettit Mfg. Co., Inc., of Wolcott, New York.
Both style brochures on this page were purchased at an estate sale in New York. Style 1 is the only of its kind, featuring hand drawn edits to the manufacturer name. There are approximately 50 copies of Style 2, which feature the changes made in Style 1.
We believe the Scat was never mass produced, similar to the Pazzazz 8×8. There are two units shown in the brochures, one with a windshield and one without. At the same estate sale as the brochures, two Scat vehicles were sold. One with a windshield, and one without. They are identical to the photographs in the brochures. We later purchased them in 2016.
A third Scat appeared in 2020, located in Lyons, New York. It’s labeled as Whitman & Robinson, Inc. model 610 serial 309. Yellow in color.
