Perhaps the Sonic Scout is a 56 or a 57 (not sure if the style carried over to 57, ad shows it in the lower right corner)
You can obtain your bikes year by contacting Leon Dixon of the National Bicycle History Archives of America [email protected]
A word of caution: Be VERY VERY VERY polite in your email, and include a few VERY GOOD pictures of the bike, AND serial number, both pictured and in text. For free, he'll tell you the YEAR of the bike. He also offers a very comprehensive report for I believe $29 or so. Start your email with something like Hello, or Good Day Mr. Dixon. Don't ask him to tell you how Evans bikes are decoded, he won't tell you. I know this all sounds strange, but that's how he is. I'm sure it's a result of being bombarded for free information.

Here is one that just surfaced yesterday.
The serial number is B177962624. It is a 15" frame measured from the top of seat lug to the center of crank arm. The crank arms are 5.75" long. The wheels are missing but it appears to have used the smaller 24" wheels. It was a green, close to a teal green color.
Here is a link to an Imgur album with more photographs.
I have written to Mr. Dixon as suggested on here to see if I can get a YOP date.
