I saw the one at LCG IV as well. Also saw another one over in Arkansas. Don't remember exactly where but it was somewhere between Memphis,TN and Searcy, AR.
In the Design Library at the top of the page, the 1959 12 foot rear entrance Scotty is included. Lots of good design ideas up there, with the benefit fo a lot of the layout work done by more experienced people than myself.
I'm on the wrong computer right now; but I have worked up a couple of variations of the basic profile for the Scotty in Sketchup done as a "foamie". Won't be on the right computer until early next week, so I can't share anything until then. I kept the files because I hate to delete anything I have worked on; but IMHO, decided it just wouldn't have the same character in foam as the original. If I remember correctly, I think I based my ideas around a modified HF trailer rather than the actual trailer frame dimensions in the Design Library.
Another reason I decided against proceeding farther was the girlfriend ("she who camps with me"). She definitely wants an external galley. Have to keep the "better other" happy. Have to decide on a design soon, as delamination problems are going to be the end of IttyBitty soon.
