Typical Arnold ..
Scott said,” You know it seems like a life time ago and I almost forgot about all that life.” We also found a black and white photo of him and Arnold in Hawaii. You can do a search on it to find it. Scott said,” Arnold never wanted to take that picture and Arnold was mad when he saw it , because I looked bigger then him in the photo.” Scott laughed about it

is this the picture? :)

Died of skin cancer in 2018.
He had a great, powerful build and could back it up.

Scott Wilson trained at Ralph Kroger's gym in El Cajon CA for many years. Mr. Kroger sold out to Glenn Vogel (Teenage Mr. America I believe) and Scott continued to train there until Bill Golumbick moved his Valley Barbell Club to El Cajon . Scott started training with weights in high school and was an excellent wrestler. I met him when his son's played basketball in the city's Recreation League. A very nice man and certainly strong as hell. His shoulder width could be compared to Don Horwath easily. He always could be spotted driving his beautiful 1955 Ford Fairlane convertible in town. I believe he later manged the Gold's gym in San Jose CA.
Be safe and strong.
