Was shown during the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 1/18/2018 Thursday telecast.
Our own Phil Borris and his book "Echoes Of Norwood" referenced as well.

It was stated by one of the Norwood Ambassadors at MCACN 2017 that the crusher was powered by a 6 cylinder Ford engine!

So they're saying not all the cars were crushed then?

Our local Vocational school had one that was donated, bad a$$ed Camaro. No VIN and a data plate claiming it was for educational purposes only.

I located the video as part of the Echoes research. A tidbit of trivia here is that everything on the very end of the final line was completed "if they could get gas in it" and they could be started. These were moved out to the repair lot and completed with parts on hand along with the designated units to be donated to the schools.

Extensively written about in the book BTW...

I took a night class at a vocational school back in the late 70’s. There were some GM rolling chassis, I remember me and a guy pinching parts for our cars. Lol.
